The  New  England  Association  of  Schools  and  Colleges  accredits  schools  and 
colleges  in  the  six  New  England  states.  Membership  in  one  of  the  six  regional 
accrediting  associations  in  the  United  States  indicates  that  the  school  or  college 
has  been  carefully  evaluated  and  found  to  meet  standards  agreed  upon  by 
qualified  educators.  Colleges  support  the  efforts  of  public  school  and  commu- 
nity officials  to  have  their  secondary  schools  meet  the  standards  of  membership. 

Northeastern  University  supports  the  efforts  of  secondary  school  officials  and 
governing  bodies  to  have  their  schools  achieve  regional  accredited  status  to 
provide  reliable  assurance  of  the  quality  of  the  educational  preparation  of  its 
applicants  for  admission. 

The  Northeastern  University  Bulletin  (USPS  989-040)  is  published  by  Northeast-

Delivery  of  Services 

The  University  assumes  no  liability,  and  hereby  expressly  negates  the  same,  for 
failure  to  provide  or  delay  in  providing  educational  or  related  services  or  facili- 
ties or  for  any  other  failure  or  delay  in  performance  arising  out  of  or  due  to 
causes  beyond  the  reasonable  control  of  the  University,  which  causes  include, 
without  limitation,  power  failure,  fire,  stnkes  by  University  employees  or  others, 
damage  by  the  elements  and  acts  of  public  authorities.  The  University  will,  how- 
ever, exert  reasonable  efforts,  when  in  its  judgment  it  is  appropriate  to  do  so,  to 
provide  comparable  or  substantially  equivalent  services,  facilities  or  perfor- 
mance, but  its  inability  or  failure  to  do  so  shall  not  subject  it  to  liability. 

The  Northeastern  University  Bulletin  contains  current  information  regarding  the 
University  calendar,  admissions,  degree  requirements,  fees,  and  regulations, 
and  such  information  is  not  intended  to  be  and  should  not  be  relied  upon  as  a 
statement  of  the  University's  contractual  undertakings. 

Northeastern  University  reserves  the  right  in  its  sole  judgment  to  promulgate 
and  change  rules  and  regulations  and  to  make  changes  of  any  nature  in  its 
program,  calendar,  admissions  policies,  procedures  and  standards,  degree  re- 
quirements, fees,  and  academic  schedule  whenever  it  is  deemed  necessary  or 
desirable,  including,  without  limitation,  changes  in  course  content,  the  resched- 
uling of  classes,  cancelling  of  scheduled  classes  and  other  academic  activities 
and  requiring  or  affording  alternatives  for  scheduled  classes  or  other  academic 
activities,  in  any  such  case  giving  such  notice  as  is  reasonably  practicable  un- 
der the  circumstances. 

Northeastern  University  will  do  its  best  to  make  available  to  you  the  finest 
education,  the  most  stimulating  atmosphere  and  the  most  congenial  conditions  it 
can  provide.  But  the  quality  and  the  rate  of  progress  of  your  academic  career  is 
in  large  measure  dependent  upon  your  own  abilities,  commitment,  and  effort. 
This  is  equally  true  with  respect  to  professional  advancement  upon  completion 
of  the  degree  or  program  in  which  you  are  enrolled.  The  University  cannot  guar- 
antee that  you  will  obtain  or  succeed  at  any  particular  job;  that  will  depend  upon 
your  own  skills,  achievement,  presentation,  and  other  factors  such  as  market 
conditions  at  that  time.  Similarly,  in  many  professions  and  occupations  there  are 
increasing  requirements  imposed  by  federal  and  state  statutes  and  regulatory 
agencies  for  certification  or  entry  into  a  particular  field.  These  may  change  dur- 
ing the  period  of  time  when  you  are  at  Northeastern  and  they  may  vary  from 
state  to  state  and  from  country  to  country.  While  the  University  stands  ready  to 
help  you  find  out  about  these  requirements  and  changes,  it  is  your  responsibility 
to  initiate  the  inquiry  because  the  University  has  no  other  way  of  knowing  what 
your  expectations  and  understandings  are. 

In  brief,  the  University  is  there  to  offer  you  educational  opportunities  and 
choices  and  to  assist  you  in  finding  the  direction  in  which  you  want  to  steer  your 
educational  experience.  But  you  are  a  partner  in  this  venture  with  an  obligation 
and  responsibility  to  yourself.

A  Message  from  the  President 

We  find  ourselves  in  the  midst  of  a  cultural  revolution  with  effects  as 
profound  as  those  of  the  industrial  revolution.  At  an  ever-increasing 
pace,  we  are  being  propelled  into  an  information  age  that  is  shaping 
our  world.  The  challenge  facing  colleges  and  universities  is  to  adapt 
their  value  systems  to  the  sweeping  impact  of  information  technology. 
We  must  find  a  way  to  move  forward  while  holding  fast  to  the  wisdom 
of  the  past. 

Northeastern  University  is  a  model  for  the  modern  university.  We  are 
constantly  evolving  to  reflect  the  changes  in  our  society.  We  recognize 
education  as  the  preparation  for  life  and  the  intelligent  appreciation  of 
life.  The  common  theme  of  our  programs  is  the  combination  of  the 
quest  for  knowledge  with  the  forging  of  a  productive  career  path.  The 
Cooperative  Plan  of  Education,  the  cornerstone  of  Northeastern's  na- 
tional and  international  reputation  for  the  last  seventy-five  years,  is  our 
way  of  effectively  coupling  these  objectives.  By  integrating  learning 
with  the  demands  of  living,  cooperative  education  enables  students  to 
understand  the  importance  of  continued  learning  throughout  their  lives. 

At  Northeastern,  a  practical  approach  to  higher  education  does  not 
diminish  our  emphasis  on  academic  life.  We  offer  a  broad  spectrum  of 
programs  spanning  professional  fields  and  the  liberal  arts.  Our  distin- 
guished faculty  have  traditionally  emphasized  excellence  in  teaching 
as  a  professional  goal.  They  are  dedicated  to  pursuing  innovative 
scholarship  and  generating  new  knowledge  through  research  in  areas 
as  diverse  as  cancer  detection,  artificial  intelligence,  laser  technology, 
and  language  and  cognition. 

As  an  urban  university  located  in  the  heart  of  Boston,  one  of  Ameri- 
ca's richest  cultural  environments,  Northeastern  University  is  a  dynamic 
and  exciting  place  at  which  to  study.  The  entire  city  is  part  of  our  "ex- 
tended campus."  By  taking  advantage  of  the  University's  many  and 
diverse  programs,  the  Cooperative  Education  Plan,  and  the  resources 
of  our  surroundings,  Northeastern  students  have  a  unique  opportunity 
to  achieve  well-rounded  intellectual,  cultural  and  social  development.

Cooperative  Education 


Cooperative  Education:  An 
Education  that  Works 


Cooperative  Education  is  based  on  the  principle  that  what  students  learn 
in  the  workplace  is  just  as  valuable  as  what  they  learn  in  the  classroom. 
By  combining  work  and  study,  students  gain  greater  insight  into  each. 

At  Northeastern  University,  cooperative  education  is  given  such  a  high 
priority  that  it  is  considered  a  degree  requirement  for  most  programs. 
The  University  makes  every  effort  to  plan  and  carefully  structure  student 
work  assignments.  It  also  attempts  whenever  possible  to  integrate  stu- 
dents' work  experiences  into  their  academic  work.  But  the  University 
cannot  do  it  alone.  A  student's  interest  and  enthusiasm  play  a  crucial 
role  in  determining  the  quality  of  co-op  experiences.  The  success  of  co- 
op, then,  depends  upon  the  cooperation  of  educators,  students,  and 
outside  agencies  to  produce  an  integrated  and  relevant  program. 

Studies  have  shown  that  the  reinforcement  of  classroom  learning  by,' 
job  responsibilities  increases  a  student's  motivation  and  self-confidence 
as  well.  Greater  interest  in  academic  work  develops  when  students  see 
the  relation  between  co-op  work  and  the  principles  they  study  in  the 
classroom.  Not  only  are  co-op  students  able  to  evaluate  career  deci 
sions  early  in  their  college  years,  they  gain  meaningful  work  experience: 
before  graduation  and  establish  professional  contacts  and  references. 

Finally,  the  salaries  students  earn  on  co-op  assignments  help  defray 
tuition,  room  and  board,  books,  and  other  expenses.

4  /  Cooperative  Education 

The  Department  of  Cooperative  Education  administers  the  cooperative 
education  programs  for  all  undergraduate  education' programs  in  the 
Basic  Colleges  and  the  graduate  programs  in  Engineering. 

Participation  in  the  Cooperative  Plan  of  Education  is  required  of  all 
students  in  the  Basic  Colleges  except  those  in  the  College  of  Arts  and 
Sciences.  Although  most  Arts  and  Sciences  students  choose  to  take 
advantage  of  co-op,  the  college  offers  a  full-time  program  in  which  eight 
quarters  of  upperclass  study  may  be  completed  in  three  years. 

Cooperative  Education  curricula  leading  to  the  baccalaureate  degree 
require  five  years  at  Northeastern  University.  Programs  consist  of  a 
freshman  year  of  three  consecutive  quarters  of  full-time  study  followed 
by  four  upperclass  years  in  which  students  alternate  periods  of  class- 
room attendance  with  Cooperative  Education  assignments. 

Students  are  assigned  a  faculty  coordinator-counselor  team  which  is 
responsible  for  all  phases  of  their  cooperative  program  and  which  as- 
sists them  in  deriving  greater  value  from  their  education  at  Northeastern. 
Personal  interviews  provide  the  basis  for  referral  to  specific  opportunities 
that  help  students  realize  career  objectives.  The  Department  of  Coop- 
erative Education  keeps  abreast  of  activities  in  specific  areas  in  order  to 
provide  counseling  on  opportunities  and  trends.  In  general,  co-op  as- 
signments become  increasingly  professional  as  the  students'  education 
and  abilities  grow. 

Students  may  wish  to  participate  in  an  activity  other  than  paid  employ- 
ment during  a  cooperative  period.  They  may  wish  to  travel  abroad,  to 
volunteer  their  services,  or  to  take  specialized  courses  at  another  insti- 
tution. Students  may  arrange  time  for  these  special  activities  with  their 
coordinators.

Further  details  on  the  cooperative  program  are  available  in  a  booklet 
entitled  Co-opportunities,  which  the  Department  of  Undergraduate  Ad- 
missions will  be  happy  to  send  you  on  request. 


Life/Career  Planning  Program 

Joseph  E.  Barbeau,  Ed.D.,  Director 


The  fundamental  mission  of  the  Life/Career  Planning  Program  is  to  offer 
students  a  variety  of  career-related  services.  Those  who  may  be  unde- 
cided about  their  academic  major  or  career  direction  or  who  want  to 
explore  career  options  and  formulate  postgraduation  plans  may  elect 
any  of  several  courses  which  are  open  to  all  undergraduate  majors. 
Students  needing  assistance  with  resumes,  interviewing,  cover  letters  or 
job  survival  techniques  may  attend  regularly  scheduled  workshops  or 
may  use  the  drop-in  resume  critique  service  of  the  Career  Resource 
Center,  Also  available  in  the  Center  is  an  "open-shelf  collection  of  print 
materials  and  a  computer  terminal  for  obtaining  information  on  jobs  and 
careers,  financial  aid,  and  graduate  and  professional  schools. 


International  Cooperative 
Education 

Robert  E.  Vozzella,  M.A.,  C.A.G.S.,  Director 


The  International  Cooperative  Education  Office  offers  a  wide  variety  of 
services  to  domestic  as  well  as  international  students.  Through  the  Inter- 
national Exchange  Program,  qualified  undergraduates  are  afforded  the 
opportunity  to  be  placed  abroad  for  their  cooperative  work  experience. 
Placements  are  currently  available  in  the  United  Kingdom,  Ireland, 
France,  Germany,  Sweden,  Canada,  and  Israel  for  students  whose  ac- 
ademic, linguistic,  and  professional  experience  makes  them  appropriate 
candidates  for  positions  abroad. 

International  students  may  receive  assistance  on  matters  relating  to 
their  co-op  employment,  such  as  social  security  and  tax  information,  as 
well  as  issues  involving  the  verification  of  their  immigration  and  co-op 
status. 

The  course  "Working  in  the  United  States"  which  has  been  expressly 
created  to  meet  the  needs  of  underclass  international  students  is  taught 
by  the  staff  of  the  International  Cooperative  Education  Office.  It  is  de- 
signed to  assist  such  students  to  compete  more  effectively  for  domestic 
cooperative  education  positions  and  to  facilitate  their  adjustment  into  the 
American  work  force. 

New  co-op  programs  currently  are  being  developed  in  the  home 
countries  of  international  students  where  the  economic  and  social  con- 
ditions render  such  undertakings  possible.  Limited  opportunities  with 
various  American  Multinational  Corporations  are  available  for  students 
majoring  in  engineering,  computer  science  and  business  administration.

The  Urban  University 


Campus  Highlights 


Located  on  Huntington  Avenue  in  the  Back  Bay  section  of  Boston,  the 
main  campus  of  Northeastern  University  occupies  fifty-five  acres,  includ- 
ing the  same  land  on  which  the  Boston  Americans  and  the  Pittsburgh 
Nationals  played  the  first  World  Series  baseball  game  in  1903.  Today, 
the  University  still  provides  ready  access  to  baseball  games;  it  is  located 
close  to  the  Fenway  section  and  Fenway  Park,  as  well  as  to  cultural 
landmarks  such  as  Symphony  Hall,  the  Museum  of  Fine  Arts,  and  the 
Boston  Public  Library,  among  others. 

The  "front  door"  to  the  campus  is  the  Yard,  or  Quadrangle,  facing 
Huntington  Avenue,  which  is  accessible  to  public  transportation.  The 
remaining  sides  of  the  Quadrangle  are  formed  by  Richards  Hall,  the  Ell 
Student  Center,  and  the  Dodge  Library.  These  three  buildings  were 
erected  following  an  architectural  design  contest  held  in  the  early  1930s. 
Their  white  brick  facades  and  clean  lines  form  the  nucleus  of  an  archi- 
tectural unit  that  is  maintained  throughout  much  of  the  campus. 

The  campus  also  reflects  the  fact  that  Northeastern  is  an  urban  uni- 
versity. Many  University  buildings  bear  the  architectural  design  that 
characterizes  the  buildings  surrounding  the  Quadrangle;  other  buildings 
have  been  acquired  over  the  years  and  refurbished  or  recycled  for  the 
University's  use.  Many  of  these  buildings  were  constructed  before 
Northeastern  selected  its  traditional  architectural  theme  and  reflect  the 
more  traditional  warmth  of  old  Boston. 

The  campus  itself  has  been  planned  to  provide  freedom  of  movement 
within  the  central  academic  area  of  classroom  and  laboratory  buildings. 
During  the  ten-minute  break  between  classes,  students  and  faculty  are 
able  to  reach  their  next  classrooms  along  the  walkways  and  secondary 
streets  that  provide  ready  access  to  all  centrally  located  buildings.  In 
addition,  a  network  of  underground  corridors  connects  many  of  the 
buildings  on  campus,  providing  routes  that  are  especially  convenient 
during  periods  of  inclement  weather. 

Dunng  the  early  1960s,  large  dormitory  facilities  were  added  diago- 
nally across  Huntington  Avenue  from  the  Quadrangle.  In  fact,  Huntington 
Avenue  currently  forms  an  approximate  divider  between  the  education  ■ 
buildings  on  the  south  and  the  dormitories  to  the  north. 

Two  blocks  and  a  right  turn  away  from  the  main  quadrangle  on  cam- 
pus is  the  oldest  indoor  ice-hockey  arena  in  the  United  States  and  one 
of  the  focal  points  for  amateur  athletics  in  the  Boston  area.  Today,  the 
Matthews  Arena  is  primarily  devoted  to  hockey  and  collegiate  sports, 
but  has  expanded  its  university  athletic  focus  to  include  all  men's  bas- 
ketball contests  and  many  women's  varsity  contests.  With  more  than 
million  and  a  half  dollars  already  invested  in  the  Matthews  Arena,  the 
building  is  an  architectural  jewel  and  a  credit  to  the  community.  As  long 
as  Northeastern  owns  the  Matthews  Arena,  it  will  continue  to  meet  the 
needs  of  the  surrounding  community  as  a  superior  recreational  facility. 

As  the  University  continues  to  expand,  parking  and  recreational  areas 
are  periodically  relocated  on  the  edge  of  campus  as  new  buildings  are

added  to  the  central  academic  area.  At  present,  the  University  is  plan- 
ning construction  around  a  second  and  new  "front  door"  on  the  south- 
west border  of  the  campus.  In  that  area,  a  transit  line  will  be  relocated 
on  the  site  of  an  old  railroad  line,  and  the  station  at  Ruggles  Street  will

also  coordinate  local  bus  routes  and  a  suburban  commuter  rail  line.  This 
area  is  also  the  location  of  the  newest  housing  facility  on  campus,  West 
Hall,  a  ten-story  apartment-dormitory. 

Plans  for  the  future  of  the  University  include  the  construction  of 
some  new  buildings  as  well  as  upgrading  of  the  old.  Among  the  high- 
lights of  the  campus  is  its  newest  structure,  the  Snell  Engineering  Center. 
This  five-story  building  accommodates  the  departments  of  Industrial  En- 
gineering and  Information  Systems,  Civil  Engineering,  Chemical  Engi- 
neering, and  Mechanical  Engineering  and  the  School  of  Engineering 
Technology  (formerly  Lincoln  College).  The  Snell  Center  adjoins  the 
Dana  Research  Center,  home  of  the  departments  of  Physics  and  Electri- 
cal and  Computer  Engineering,  creating  an  impressive  academic  com- 
plex. Cullinane  Hall,  which  houses  the  College  of  Computer  Science,  is 
a  fine  example  of  renovation.  The  structure  was  the  University's  oldest 
and  has  been  totally  refurbished  to  meet  the  ever  increasing  needs  of 
Northeastern's  newest  college.  The  Snell  Center  and  a  planned  new 
library  will  not  only  provide  more  classrooms  and  research  and  study 
facilities,  but  will  also  physically  form  a  quadrangle,  the  key  design 
element  of  spatial  organization  at  the  University.  The  quadrangle  will  be 
an  integral  part  of  the  new  "front  door"  to  the  campus. 

A  building  constructed  recently  is  the  architecturally  dramatic  addition 
to  the  Law  School.  This  one-story  structure  is  half  below  grade,  opening 
into  a  sunken  garden,  and  has  a  landscaped  plaza  on  its  roof.  Over  a 
block  long,  this  plaza  is  a  focal  point  and  gathering  spot  for  the  west 
campus  area.  Adjacent  to  this  site,  a  semicircular  classroom  building 
has  also  been  recently  constructed. 

An  ongoing  renovation  program  is  also  providing  more  accessibility 
for  the  handicapped.  Existing  facilities  throughout  the  University  are 
being  updated  constantly  to  provide  more  efficient  classroom,  research, 
and  office  facilities  while  still  retaining  their  traditional  charm.

Boston,  the  "Extended  Campus" 


It  IS  no  accident  that  one  out  of  every  five  Massachusetts  students 
chooses  Northeastern  University  for  his  or  her  college  education.  In 
addition  to  its  innovative  system  of  Cooperative  Education,  Northeast- 
ern's  "extended  campus"  of  Boston  attracts  students  who  want  to  take 
advantage  of  the  many  opportunities  this  world-class  city  offers. 

Located  throughout  metropolitan  Boston,  many  of  America's  leading 
corporations  and  institutions  provide  Northeastern  students  with  mean- 
ingful co-op  assignments.  Their  offices  and  laboratories  become  class- 
rooms for  students  who  want  to  participate  in  the  world  of  work  first- 
hand. Co-op  employers  help  them  gain  the  knowledge  and  judgment  for 
a  head  start  in  launching  their  careers  and  the  foundation  on  which  to 
build  them. 

For  those  who  want  to  see  the  eclectic  blend  of  historic  and  contem- 
porary Boston,  there  are  the  exciting  shops  and  restaurants  of  Boston's 
nationally  famous  Quincy  Market  and  the  new  Copley  Place.  Alongside 
the  bustle  of  Haymarket  in  the  North  End,  the  ancient  tradition  of  China- 
town, and  the  grace  of  the  Public  Garden  is  the  strikingly  bold  architec- 
ture of  Government  Center,  Copley  Plaza,  the  State  House,  and  the 
Christian  Science  Center.  The  John  Hancock  Observatory  and  the  Pru- 
dential Skywalk  offer  excellent  views  of  Boston,  old  and  new. 

Among  the  hundreds  of  cultural  attractions  in  Boston  are  the  Museum 
of  Fine  Arts  and  Symphony  Hall,  both  adjacent  to  the  Northeastern  cam- 
pus. The  former  provides  free  admission  to  its  permanent  collections 
and  special  international  exhibitions  for  more  than  16,000  Northeastern 
undergraduates.  Also  neighbors  of  Northeastern  are  the  Isabella  Stewart 
Gardner  Museum,  the  Institute  of  Contemporary  Art,  the  New  England 
Conservatory  of  Music,  the  Christian  Science  Center,  and  the  Boston 
Public  Library.  A  short  ride  on  mass  transit  brings  students  to  the  Mu- 
seum of  Science,  Hayden  Planetarium,  and  the  Theatre  District. 

The  home  of  more  than  sixty  colleges  and  universities,  greater  Boston 
offers  an  ever-changing  kaleidoscope  of  academic  enrichment.  Within 
walking  distance  of  Northeastern  are  Massachusetts  Institute  of  Tech- 
nology. Boston  University,  Simmons  College,  Emmanuel  College,  Mas- 
sachusetts College  of  Art,  and  Harvard  Medical  School.  Also  close  by 
are  Boston's  world-renowned  hospitals  and  their  affiliated  research  fa- 
cilities. 

Best  known  as  the  birthplace  of  the  American  Revolution,  Boston  at- 
tracts thousands  to  the  historical  landmarks  of  its  Freedom  Trail  every 
year.  Among  them  are  Paul  Revere's  House,  the  U.S.S.  Constitution 
("Old  Ironsides"),  Faneuil  Hall,  Beacon  Hill,  and  the  Boston  Common.  In 
recent  years,  a  Harborwalk  has  introduced  thousands  more  to  the  excit- 
ing sights  on  the  Boston  Waterfront,  including  the  Boston  Tea  Party  Ship 
and  Museum. 

Boston  revels  in  the  competition  of  its  professional  sports  teams— the 
Red  Sox,  Celtics,  Bruins,  and  Patriots— and  Northeastern  students  join 
in  the  excitement  at  Fenway  Park,  Boston  Garden,  and  Sullivan  Stadium. 
Each  spring,  runners  from  all  over  the  world  come  to  Boston  to  partici- 
pate in  the  Boston  Marathon— the  granddaddy  of  them  all.  In  addition, 
the  Charles  River  and  the  slopes  of  northern  New  England  tempt  North- 
eastern students  with  some  of  the  best  crewing  and  skiing  in  the  country. 


12 /Campus  Highlights 

The  list  of  professional,  historical,  cultural,  educational  and  recrea- 
tional opportunities  in  Boston  goes  on  and  on.  Although  many  of  them 
are  within  walking  distance  of  Northeastern,  many  others  are  easily  ac- 
cessible by  mass  transit,  which  stops  directly  in  front  of  the  University. 
Northeastern,  in  partnership  with  many  of  the  city's  most  prestigious 
institutions,  encourages  students  to  explore  these  opportunities  to  the 
fullest.

Program  Alms 

Studies  in  a  broad  distribution  of  disciplines  in  Arts  and  Sciences  are 
universally  regarded  as  the  core  of  higher  education.  For  this  reason, 
nearly  all  students  in  the  University— no  matter  what  disciplines  they 
choose  for  their  career  training— devote  a  substantial  portion  of  their 
studies  to  the  arts  and  sciences. 

The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  comprises  a  wide  variety  of  pro- 
grams spanning  an  enormous  range  of  human  knowledge  and  activity. 
These  programs  are  grouped  informally  into  divisions  as  follows:  (1 )  Fine 
Arts,  (2)  Humanities,  (3)  Natural  Sciences,  including  Mathematics,  and 
(4)  Social  Sciences.  The  College  as  a  whole  emphasizes  the  general 
education  of  students;  within  each  division,  the  disciplines  tend  to  offer 
a  common  preprofessional  orientation  and  emphasis. 

In  addition,  the  College  offers  a  large  number  of  interdisciplinary  pro- 
grams as  well  as  extradisciplinary  opportunities  for  the  ennchment  of 
learning.  These  are  grouped  into  a  division  of  Special  Programs.  The 
division  includes  exchange  programs  with  other  institutions,  both  nation- 
ally and  internationally,  for  employment  and/or  study;  programs  for  ex- 
tended studies  in  field  settings  at  sea  and  abroad;  and  cultural  programs 
involving  affiliations  with  professional  performing  arts  organizations — to 
name  a  few.  At  present  the  division  comprises  over  thirty  different  spe- 
cial programs  of  various  types.  These  programs  are  described  at  the 
end  of  the  Arts  and  Sciences  section  of  this  Bulletin. 

Graduates  of  the  College  find  they  are  prepared  for  a  multitude  of 
employment  opportunities  in  all  walks  of  life.  Many  choose  to  accept 
employment  directly,  following  receipt  of  the  bachelor's  degree.  Others 
choose  to  continue  their  training  by  going  on  to  graduate-level  studies, 
for  example,  in  business,  law,  or  medicine.  Others  decide  to  pursue 
advanced  study  in  an  area  closely  related  to  their  undergraduate  field. 

Four-  and  Five-Year  Programs  in  all  programs,  students  of  the  Col- 
lege have  the  option  of  choosing  a  four-year,  full-time  track  or  the  five- 
year  Cooperative  Plan.  The  five-year  plan  offers  opportunities  for  regular 
"real  world"  employment  and  income  in  an  area  often  related  to  the 


22  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

chosen  area  of  academic  work.  Students  are  normally  eligible  to  partic- 
ipate in  [he  Cooperative  Plan  when  they  achieve  sophomore  status. 

Major  Programs 

Entering  students  are  invited  to  express  a  "major  preference"  for  one  of 
the  major  programs,  and  this,  together  with  the  core  requirements  of  the 
College,  determines  the  course  of  studies  in  the  first  and  second  years. 
There  is  considerable  flexibility,  however,  and  students  often  change 
their  preferences  during  this  period.  Formal  certification  of  the  major 
choice,  accomplished  by  submission  and  approval  of  a  petition,  nor- 
mally takes  place  at  the  beginning  of  the  third  year,  when  the  transition 
to  the  "upper  division"  of  the  College  occurs. 

Students  entering  the  lower  division  of  the  College  may  wish  to  petition 
later  for  transfer  to  the  upper  division  of  the  College  of  Business  or  the 
College  of  Computer  Science.  Arts  and  Sciences  freshmen  with  this 
intention  should  indicate  "Business"  or  "Computer  Science"  as  the  initial 
major  preference  on  the  application. 

Students  in  the  College  may  earn  a  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  in  all 
major  programs  or  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in  most  major  pro- 
grams. 

Honors  Program 

The  Honors  Program  of  the  College  exists  to  meet  the  needs  of  highly 
motivated  and  especially  successful  students.  It  is  an  optional  program 
providing  an  assortment  of  special  courses  and  activities  for  students 
who  are  invited  to  participate. 

The  Honors  Program  sponsors,  through  the  efforts  of  an  advisory 
council  of  students  in  the  program  and  a  faculty  honors  committee,  a 
number  of  cultural,  recreational,  and  social  events,  as  well  as  a  speaker 
series.  Some  of  these  events  are  made  available  by  the  program  for  the 
benefit  of  the  entire  University  community.  Others  afford  honors  students 
alone  the  opportunity  to  associate  with  peers  in  circumstances  less  for- 
mal than  the  classroom,  where  they  can  get  better  acquainted  and  par- 
ticipate in  the  casual  discussions  that  make  up  such  an  important  part 
of  a  university  education. 

The  Honors  Curriculum  consists  of  (1)  some  of  the  courses  required 
for  all,  or  elected  by  many,  students;  (2)  interdisciplinary  and  survey 
seminars  as  honors  alternatives  for  elective  courses;  (3)  one-credit-hour 
"mini-courses"  on  a  wide  variety  of  subjects;  and  (4)  the  opportunity  for 
students  to  undertake  a  special  Honors  Project  under  the  supervision  of 
a  faculty  adviser  in  the  junior  and  senior  years. 

The  Honors  Program  is  designed  to  be  consistent  with  participation  in 
the  other  programs  of  the  College,  including  a  major  in  any  of  the  de- 
partments. The  Honors  Program  makes  some  extra  demands,  but  be- 
cause the  courses  are  limited  in  size,  aim  for  greater  than  usual  breadth 
and  depth  of  inquiry,  and  promote  close  interaction  between  faculty  and 
students,  the  program  offers  especially  stimulating  educational  oppor- 
tunities. 

A  student's  participation  in  any  honors  course  is  noted  clearly  on  his 
or  her  transcript— something  that  may  be  useful  when  students  apply  for 
employment  or  admission  to  graduate  school. 

Students  who  participate  in  the  Honors  Program  may  be  eligible  for 
Honors  Program  Distinction  at  graduation.  The  requirement  for  this  no- 
tation on  the  student's  transcnpt  is  that  a  student  completes  at  least 


College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  /  23 

twenty-four  quarter  hours  of  course  work  in  tfie  program,  including  at 
least  one  survey  seminar  and  not  more  tfian  eighit  quarter  hours  of  credit 
for  a  junior/senior  honors  project. 

Since  the  fall  of  1983,  eligible  students  from  other  colleges  in  the 
University  have  been  invited  to  participate  in  the  Honors  Program 
courses  and  activities. 

Advising  and  Placement 

Upon  acceptance  to  the  College,  students  are  placed  into  freshmen  and 
sophomore  courses  designed  to  suit  their  abilities,  needs,  and  prospec- 
tive major  affiliations.  The  placement  process  involves  close  consultation 
between  students  and  faculty  advisers  from  the  major  programs. 

The  particular  studies  advised  for  freshmen  fall  into  several  placement 
categories,  as  follows:  (1)  honors,  (2)  regular,  (3)  regular  with  modifica- 
tion, and  (4)  special.  The  latter  two  categories  may  require  that  students 
undertake  studies  in  skill  development  to  improve  their  chances  of  suc- 
cess in  college.  These  placements  are  determined  by  faculty,  subject  to 
review  by  consultation  during  Orientation  Week,  before  classes  start  in 
the  fall  quarter.  Continued  monitoring  and  mentoring  by  faculty  and/or 
staff  advisers  aids  students  in  appropriately  preparing  to  enter  their 
major  fields  of  study. 

As  in  the  freshman  year,  faculty  guidance  is  available  to  upper-class 
students  for  maintaining  satisfactory  academic  standing  and  gaining 
entry  by  petition  to  a  major  field  of  specialization.  After  the  major  choice 
is  certified,  students  are  formally  affiliated  with  their  department,  its  fac- 
ulty, and  other  students  in  the  same  major  field. 

The  Arts  and  Sciences  Dean's  Office,  located  in  403  Meserve  Hall,  is 
the  central  administrative  office  for  all  students  majoring  in  Arts  and 
Sciences  programs.  In  addition  to  the  academic  counselors  located  in 
the  various  departments,  the  Dean's  Office  staff  is  available  to  all  stu- 
dents for  academic  assistance.  The  counselors  in  the  Dean's  Office  work 
closely  with  departmental  advisers  to  help  the  student  work  out  a  pro- 
gram of  study  and  take  care  of  any  problems  that  may  ahse  relating  to 
administrative  procedures.  The  Dean's  Office  is  open  from  8:30  to  4:30, 
Monday  through  Friday,  during  the  fall,  winter,  and  spring  quarters,  and 
from  8:00  to  5:30,  Monday  through  Thursday,  during  the  summer.  Stu- 
dents are  encouraged  to  make  appointments  with  counselors  at  any  of 
these  times.  The  phone  number  is  437-3980. 

Student  Services 

Cahners  Hall  Math/Writing  Center  All  mathematics  and  English  re- 
medial courses  are  taught  in  classrooms  in  Cahners  Hall,  the  Math/ 
Writing  Center.  The  facility  includes  a  Writing  Center  and  a  Math  Work- 
shop, where  students  may  receive  individual  tutoring.  In  addition,  Cah- 
ners Hall  has  five  computer  terminals  and  a  printer  which  are  used  to 
teach  problem-solving  strategies  in  the  remedial  math  courses. 

Preprofessional  Advising  The  Pre-Health  Professions  Advisory  Com- 
mittee, a  University-wide  group,  offers  preprofessional  counseling  for 
students  interested  in  a  career  in  medicine,  dentistry,  or  related  profes- 
sional medical  fields.  The  Committee  members  are  available  to  discuss 
the  various  medical  fields,  minimum  admissions  requirements,  and  ap- 
plication processes. 

For  students  preparing  for  a  career  in  law,  there  are  also  a  number  of 
faculty  members  who  can  serve  as  advisers  and  resource  personnel  on 
related  curricular  and  admissions  questions. 


24  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

In  addition,  the  Department  of  Career  Development  and  Placement 
provides  information  and  advice  on  procedures  for  admission,  prepara- 
tion of  applications,  and  the  scheduling  of  appropriate  admissions  tests. 
For  further  information  regarding  the  above,  students  should  contact  a 
counselor  in  the  Arts  and  Sciences  Dean's  Office. 

Program  Descriptions  and 
Regulations 

The  following  pages  briefly  describe  each  major  in  the  College  of  Arts

Fine  Arts 

To  try  to  define  the  boundaries  of  an  academic  discipline  is  to  invite 
controversy.  This  is  nowhere  more  true  than  in  the  field  of  the  arts. 
However,  one  can  say  that  the  term  "arts,"  used  without  qualification  (as 
in  "Arts  and  Sciences"),  refers  to  such  disciplines  as  languages,  litera- 
ture, and  philosophy  that  are  presumed  to  develop  general  intellectual 
ability  and  judgment  and  provide  information  of  general  cultural  con- 
cern. 

Education  in  the  arts  is  thus  distinguishable  from  education  in  the 
sciences — which  emphasizes  knowledge  of  objective  facts  and  laws — 
and  especially  from  narrowly  practical  training,  as  for  a  particular  profes- 
sion such  as  law  or  medicine. 

The  term  "Fine  Arts"  refers  specifically  to  those  disciplines  concerned 
primarily  with  works  produced  or  intended  for  beauty  rather  than  mere 
utility.  Thus,  the  term  includes  (but  is  not  limited  to)  activities  such  as 
sculpture,  painting  and  drawing,  and,  often,  architecture,  drama,  music, 
and  the  dance. 

in  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  the  major  disciplines  comprising 
the  Fine  Arts  division  are  as  follows:

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  visual  arts,  our  oldest  form  of  artistic  expression,  offer  a 
deeper  understanding  of  humanity  and  the  cultural  forces  that  have 
affected  us  historically.  Moreover,  as  visual  communication  becomes 
more  widespread  in  the  contemporary  world,  the  use  and  understanding 
of  visual  language  must  be  seen  as  a  necessary  part  of  the  educational 
process. 

In  view  of  this,  the  aim  of  the  Department  is  threefold:  (1)  to  introduce 
art  and  architecture  both  as  history  and  as  creative  activity  in  the  context 
of  a  broad  liberal  arts  education;  (2)  to  offer  a  more  focused  study  of  the 
visual  arts  through  a  critical  examination  of  both  the  language  and  con- 
tent of  art  and  architecture  in  the  context  of  a  particular  historical  period, 
or  through  the  hands-on  experience  of  a  studio  setting;  and  (3)  to  pro- 
vide an  opportunity  for  a  solid  academic  foundation  to  those  who  wish 
to  pursue  a  career  in  art  and  architecture,  or  related  fields. 

One  of  the  main  resources  of  the  Department  is  Boston  itself,  whose 
architecture  spans  three  hundred  years,  whose  museums  are  world  fa- 
mous, whose  galleries  and  cinemas  offer  the  latest  in  their  respective 
areas,  and  whose  public  library  is  one  of  the  best  of  its  kind.  Learning  to 
use  these  resources  systematically  is  an  all-embracing  aim  of  the  De- 
partment. 

Description  of  the  Major  The  Department  offers  three  concentrations 
within  the  major;  (1)  history  of  art  and  architecture,  (2)  studio  art,  and  (3) 
architecture.  Courses  in  the  history  of  art  and  architecture  cover  the 
major  periods  of  the  Western  World  from  Ancient  to  Modern,  with  a  focus 
on  nineteenth-  and  twentieth-century  Europe  and  America. 

The  studio  concentration  includes  painting,  drawing,  printmaking,  ar- 
chitecture, film,  and  photography.  Studio  courses  are  complemented  by 
courses  offered  in  the  theory  and  criticism  of  these  art  forms.  The  best 
work  created  in  the  studio  courses  is  exhibited  in  the  annual  student 
show  at  the  University  Art  Gallery. 

The  architecture  concentration  consists  of  courses  in  the  history  and 
theory  of  architecture  and  architectural  design.  Except  for  Introduction 
to  Architectural  Design,  all  design  courses  are  to  be  taken  at  the  Boston 
Architectural  Center  at  320  Newbury  Street,  Boston. 

A  View  of  the  Major  The  Department  offers  both  a  Bachelor  of  Arts 
degree  and  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  program.  In  both  programs 
the  requirements  for  the  major  are  the  two-part  survey  course  in  art 
history,  twelve  electives  in  art  and/or  architecture,  plus  one  elective  each, 
in  music  and  philosophy  and  two  in  history.  With  prior  approval,  art 


Art  and  Architecture  /  27 


courses  not  offered  by  the  Department  may  be  taken  in  one  of  the 
neighboring  art  schools  or  universities. 

Majors  may  pursue  either  a  four-year  full-time  program  or  a  five-year 
cooperative  plan  of  study,  Transfer  from  one  to  the  other  is  possible,  and 
registration  in  either  can  be  reversed.  Cooperative  work  assignments 
include  positions  in  museums,  libranes,  histoncal  collections,  archives, 
and  the  Northeastern  University  Art  Gallery. 

A  View  of  the  Minor  The  Department  offers  a  minor  program  for  stu- 
dents majoring  in  other  fields  of  study.  The  program  consists  of  a  general 
minor  and  the  following  four  concentrations:  history  of  painting,  architec- 
ture, film  and  photography,  and  studio  art.  The  number  of  courses  re- 
quired for  the  minor  does  not  exceed  seven.  Students  interested  in  the 
minor  program  should  consult  the  Department.

Professional  Preparation 

Alms  Music  speaks  directly  to  the  soul.  The  experience  of  the  nnaster- 
works  of  the  musical  art  is  one  of  the  cornerstones  of  a  humanistic 
education. 

The  primary  aim  of  the  Department  of  Music  is  to  foster  the  aesthetic 
appreciation  of  music  by  giving  students  the  opportunity  to  gain  the 
knowledge  and  skills  necessary  to  understand  and  intelligently  evaluate 
a  musical  composition. 

Courses  are  offered  in  the  areas  of  general  appreciation,  music  theory, 
the  history  of  music  (both  Western  and  non-Western),  applied  music 
lessons,  and  aspects  of  the  music  industry.  Performing  ensembles  di- 
rected by  full-time  music  faculty  provide  the  opportunity  for  students  to 
experience  first-hand  the  music  which  they  have  studied  in  the  class- 
room. Furthermore,  an  extensive  concert  series  offers  a  varied  program 
of  performances  on  campus  by  faculty,  students,  and  guest  artists. 

Description  of  the  Major  The  Music  Department  offers  a  variety  of 
options  for  the  prospective  musician.  While  the  core  of  the  program  is 
the  study  of  music,  students  can  concentrate  in  a  vahety  of  sub-special- 
ties such  as  World  Music,  African-American  Music,  Music  and  Technol- 
ogy, the  Music  Industry,  Music  Therapy,  and  Performance. 

The  Music  major  is  divided  into  two  areas.  In  the  first  area,  the  histori- 
cal development  of  the  great  music  literature  of  Western  civilization  is 
traced.  The  second  area  is  comprised  of  a  series  of  theory  courses 
encompassing  ear-training,  keyboard  skills,  and  analytic  techniques. 
Students  have  use  of  Northeastern's  modern  facilities,  which  include  a 
piano  laboratory  and  a  fully-equipped  listening  center. 

A  View  of  the  Major  For  the  B.A.  degree  program  in  music,  students 
must  complete  four  courses  in  music  theory,  five  courses  in  music  his- 
tory, one  course  in  keyboard  proficiency,  and  two  courses  in  musical 
analysis.  Students  must  take  a  minimum  of  three  electives  in  music,  as 
well  as  three  courses  in  Western  Civilization,  Art,  and  Drama.  The  re- 
mainder of  the  student's  course  work  is  selected  from  a  broad  base  of 
electives  in  the  College  Core  Curriculum.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Theatre,  one  of  the  most  ancient  of  all  art  forms,  is  still  a  moving 
force  in  our  society  because  it  uniquely  involves  both  the  performer  and 
the  spectator  to  a  degree  unmatched  by  most  creative  and  communi- 
cative arts. 

At  Northeastern,  students  in  the  Theatre  and  Dance  Department  have 
the  opportunity  to  enroll  in  a  program  of  study  that  provides  a  balance 
betv\/een  theory/history/literature  courses  and  studio  rehearsal  and  per- 
formance vuork.  The  curricula  provide  the  student  with  the  opportunity  to 
obtain  the  background  for  advanced  study  on  a  graduate  level  or  for  a 
career  in  the  professional  theatre. 

Description  of  the  IVIajor  The  undergraduate  theatre  major  will  be 
introduced  to  the  total  theatre  experience.  A  diverse  core  program,  con- 
sisting of  twelve  courses,  is  designed  to  develop  understanding  of  the 
essentials  necessary  as  a  foundation  upon  which  to  elect  one  of  the 
following  seven  concentrations:  Acting,  Sce'^.ic  Design,  Costume  De- 
sign, Lighting  Design,  Literature/Cnticism,  Dance,  or  Generalist  Concen- 
tration. 

The  classroom  and  stages  are  viewed  as  laboratories  where  theory  is 
tested  in  rehearsal  and  performance.  To  enrich  the  means  of  perfor- 
mance, the  facilities  and  faculty  of  other  art  departments — Music  and 
Art  and  Architecture — are  drawn  upon.  Theatre  majors  are  encouraged 
to  express  individual  creative  and  interpretative  impulses,  and  with  the 
support  of  a  faculty  adviser  are  often  able  to  perform  a  variety  of  projects 
of  their  own  initiation  in  areas  of  acting,  directing,  playwriting,  design,  or 
performance  art. 

A  View  of  the  IVIajor  The  difference  between  the  B.A.  degree  and  the 
B.S.  degree  is  one  of  flexibility  and  concentration.  The  B.S.  degree  al- 
lows the  substitution  of  specialized  field  courses  for  certain  of  the  Col- 
lege's general  and  language  requirements. 

Besides  completing  the  required  courses  offered  by  the  College  of 
Arts  and  Sciences  toward  a  degree  program,  and  before  focusing  on 
further  course  work  within  any  particular  concentration,  all  majors  in  all 
concentrations  except  Dance  must  complete  forty-eight  quarter  hours  of 
the  departmental  core,  which  includes  such  courses  as  Introduction  to 
Acting,  Concepts  of  Directing,  Stagecraft,  Introduction  to  Theatre  De- 
sign, and  Introduction  to  Art,  Drama,  and  Music.  Theatre  majors  with  a 
Dance  Concentration,  before  focusing  on  further  course  work  within  this 
Concentration,  must  complete  a  core  of  forty-seven  quarter  hours.  In 
addition  to  various  technique  classes  in  Ballet,  Jazz  Dance,  Modern 


Theatre  and  Dance/ 31 

Dance,  and  Choreography,  the  following  are  just  some  of  the  courses  in 
the  core  of  the  Dance  Concentration:  Dance  in  the  Twentieth  Century, 
Anatomy/Physiology,  Kinesiology,  and  Dance  in  Cultural  Perspective. 

The  theatre  represents  the  major  public  laboratory  to  the  major,  a 
place  where  theory  is  put  into  practice.  All  majors  are  expected  to  work 
in  production  each  quarter  in  residence  and  fulfill  a  variety  of  crew 
assignments  in  construction,  painting,  sound,  lighting,  costuming,  and 
box  office  work,  as  well  as  crew  assignments  for  the  running  of  a  show. 
Whenever  possible,  majors  are  expected  to  serve  as  stage  managers 
and  assistant  stage  managers.  Appearing  in  a  production  is  not  a  sub- 
stitute for  crew  work  and,  when  reasonably  possible,  all  those  concen- 
trating in  a  performance  aspect  should  also  participate  in  crew  activities. 

It  is  also  recommended  that  Theatre  majors  take  a  Physical  Education 
skill  course  during  each  of  the  quarters  in  residence.  The  following 
courses,  when  available,  are  recommended:  Modern  Dance,  Ballet, 
Jazz  Dance,  Tumbling,  Gymnastics,  Fencing,  and  Physical  Condition- 
ing. 

Description  of  the  Minor  Students  majoring  in  other  departments  may 
choose  a  minor  in  Theatre  to  complement  their  academic  majors  or  to 
assist  them  in  developing  career  goals  by  taking  eight  courses  (thirty- 
two  quarter  hours).  Closely  supervised  by  a  departmental  faculty  ad- 
viser, students  may  follow  programs  of  study  that  offer  a  generalized  or 
a  specialized  program.  Specialized  areas  are  in  Acting,  Scenic  Design, 
Costume  Design,  Lighting  Design,  and  Literature  and  Criticism. 

Accreditation  Basic  course  work  offered  by  this  department  adheres 
to  the  suggested  minimum  requirements  for  a  Theatre  degree  as  put 
forth  by  the  American  Theatre  Association  and  enables  the  diligent  stu- 
dent to  prepare  for  the  Graduate  Placement  Examination  in  Theatre.

Humanities 

The  Humanities  are  those  disciplines  concerned  with  human  beings  and 
their  cultures — especially  subjective  aspects  of  cultures,  which  invest 
life  with  meaning  and  value.  Examples  are  the  disciplines  of  languages 
and  literature,  and  philosophy  and  religion. 

The  Humanities  are  distinguished  from  the  Social  Sciences,  which 
tend  to  focus  on  objective  aspects  of  societies  and  on  individual  rela- 
tionships in,  and  to,  society.  This  distinction,  however,  is  helpful  only  if 
used  with  reservations.  Most  humanistic  disciplines  do  not  neatly  con- 
form to  one  simple  description  or  the  other. 

In  the  broadest  terms,  of  course,  the  Humanities  can  be  viewed  as 
encompassing  the  Fine  Arts.  This  is  because  a  sense  of  aesthetics  is 
among  the  most  basic  of  human  values.  As  a  result,  all  cultures  are 
centrally  concerned  with  issues  of  form  and  beauty. 

In  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  the  major  disciplines  comprising 
the  Humanities  division  are  as  follows:

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  The  English  Department  curriculum  is  diverse  in  its  aims  and 
flexible  in  its  design.  For  the  general  University  community,  the  curricu- 
lum offers  possibilities  in  creative,  expository,  and  technical  writing;  lin- 
guistics; and  American,  British,  and  foreign  literature.  For  the 
preprofessional  student — in  law,  medicine,  business,  engineering,  or 
computer  science — it  offers  a  broad  intellectual  and  cultural  frame  for 
specialist  concerns.  For  the  minor  in  English,  it  offers  the  possibility  of 
concentration  in  literature,  writing,  or  technical  writing  to  supplement  the 
major  concerns  of  other  disciplines.  For  the  major  in  English,  it  offers  the 
opportunity  to  prepare  for  careers  in  teaching  and  research,  advertising 
and  publishing,  radio  and  television — indeed,  any  field  in  which  com- 
munication and  judgment  go  hand  in  hand. 

At  a  time  when  the  price  of  imprecision  in  language  is  more  than 
simple  misunderstanding,  and  the  cost  of  changing  values  more  than 


34  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

personal  uncertainty,  the  study  of  literature  provides  "a  monnentary  stay 
against  confusion."  It  deals  with  the  hard  edge  of  being,  an  insight  into 
the  ways  of  men  and  women,  at  once  clear  and  complex.  In  fact,  the 
very  structure  of  literature  gives  shape  and  meaning  to  the  often  formless 
experiences  of  life.  And  it  does  so  with  grace  and  force.  Put  another 
way,  literature  "tells  it  like  it  is,"  not  statistically,  not  abstractly,  but  with 
the  details  of  fully  realized  people  in  accessible  worlds,  in  "imaginary 
gardens  with  real  toads  in  them." 

Description  of  the  Major  There  is  flexibility  enough  in  the  curriculum 
requirements  and  its  details  to  accommodate  the  pace  and  interest  of  a 
wide  range  of  students.  Members  of  the  Department  are  available 
throughout  the  year  to  help  and  advise  students,  but  the  critical  choices 
rest  essentially  with  the  student.  The  American  literature  requirement,  for 
example,  may  be  met  by  successfully  completing  courses  from  among 
such  recent  offerings  as  Major  American  Novels,  The  New  England  Re- 
naissance, American  Realism,  and  American  Romanticism.  To  this  area, 
as  to  others,  the  Department  regularly  adds  new  courses  and,  hence, 
even  more  options. 

A  View  of  the  IWajor  The  curriculum  for  the  major  in  English  allows  the 
student  to  take  a  wide  vanety  of  courses  while  maintaining  a  strong 
background  in  the  history  of  British  and  American  literature.  After  com- 
pleting the  freshman  requirement,  the  English  major  takes  survey 
courses,  area  courses  (in  language  or  writing,  British  literature,  Ameri- 
can literature,  major  figure,  genre),  other  electives,  and,  finally,  a  Junior- 
Senior  Seminar  as  the  culmination  of  study.  A  student  has  the  opportu- 
nity to  study  science  fiction,  Kurt  Vonnegut,  topics  in  film,  or  children's 
literature,  as  well  as  Shakespeare,  early  American  literature.  Romantic 
poetry,  and  topics  in  literary  criticism.  In  an  effort  to  be  responsive  to  the 
individual  interests  and  academic  needs  of  a  particular  student,  inde- 
pendent study  also  may  be  arranged  with  an  English  instructor. 

A  View  of  the  IVIinor  Students  who  would  like  to  minor  in  English  may 
choose  the  minor  in  literature  or  in  writing,  either  expository  or  creative. 
There  is  also  a  minor  in  technical  communication  which  is  described  in 
the  Special  Programs  section  of  this  publication.  Within  each  minor,  the  i 
student  may  select  an  individual  course  of  study  with  the  help  of  an 
English  Department  adviser.

Professional  Preparation 

Alms  The  Department  of  Journalism  offers  students  the  opportunity  to 
prepare  themselves  for  productive  careers  in  print  and  broadcast  news 
media,  advertising,  and  public  relations.  It  emphasizes  professional 
skills  in  information  gathering,  writing,  editing,  photography,  and  design 
and  graphics  that  may  be  applied  to  numerous  fields. 

The  Department  also  seeks  to  contribute  to  the  existing  body  of  knowl- 
edge in  journalism/mass  communications,  especially  knowledge  which 
will  help  news  media  practitioners  and  educators  perform  their  jobs  with 
increasing  effectiveness. 

Career  Opportunities  Journalism  offers  many  exciting,  rewarding  ca- 
reer opportunities.  Northeastern  University  journalism  graduates  work 
for  daily  and  weekly  newspapers,  news  departments  of  radio  and  tele- 
vision stations,  wire  services,  general  and  specialized  magazines,  pub- 
lic relations  departments,  and  advertising  agencies. 

A  View  of  the  l\/lajor  A  journalist  should  have  a  broad  background  of 
liberal  arts  courses  on  the  undergraduate  level,  a  need  that  most  univer- 
sity journalism  programs  have  long  recognized.  The  student  should  have 
professional  courses  but  not  to  the  point  of  overspecialization. 

The  generally  accepted  formula  for  the  bachelor's  degree  in  journal- 
ism is  a  combination  of  75  percent  arts  and  sciences  courses  and  25 
percent  professional  courses.  The  ideal  schedule  is  one  or  two  journal- 
ism courses  each  quarter,  with  additional  work  in  the  humanities,  social 
sciences,  physical  sciences,  and  economics. 

Because  journalism  skills  can  be  better  expanded  and  understood 
with  the  aid  of  a  laboratory,  upperclass  journalism  majors  are  encour- 
aged to  participate  in  the  Cooperative  Plan  of  Education.  Co-op  assign- 
ments with  newspapers,  radio  and  television  stations,  news  bureaus, 
advertising  agencies,  and  public  relations  offices  provide  a  practical 
laboratory  experience  important  in  helping  students  prepare  themselves 
for  careers  in  mass  communications.  In  addition,  such  experience  offers 
the  student  an  advantage  if  he  or  she  decides  to  seek  admission  to  a 
graduate  program. 

All  majors  in  this  department  complete  a  journalism  core  program  that 
includes  History  of  Journalism,  Journalism  Ethics,  Newswriting,  Editing, 
Law  of  the  Press,  and  Photojournalism.  In  addition,  each  major  takes 
courses  in  one  of  four  concentrations — Newspaper/Print  Media,  Radio- 
Television  News,  Advertising,  or  Public  Relations — according  to  his  or 
her  career  objective.

Professional  Preparation 

Alms  The  study  of  Modern  Languages  can  be  of  value  to  all  students, 
regardless  of  their  major  fields  of  interest.  In  the  complex  and  rapid  pace 
of  modern  life,  there  is  a  need  for  increased  communication  between 
varied  and  often  divergent  cultures,  even  those  within  the  narrow  con- 
fines of  one's  own  community.  To  better  understand  and  appreciate 
these  cultures,  it  is  very  important  to  know  the  ways  in  which  the  mem- 
bers of  the  culture  think. 

As  the  principal  means  of  communication,  language  frequently  offers 
the  key  to  understanding.  Thus,  language  may  serve  to  help  one  achieve 
a  more  cosmopolitan,  open-minded,  and  sensitive  view  of  the  world. 

The  Department  offers  opportunities  for  background  preparation  for 
students  interested  in  elementary,  secondary  school,  or  college  teach- 
ing; international  business  relations;  high-tech;  government  service; 
journalism;  library  science;  world  affairs;  travel;  and  community  service 
(especially  in  Spanish-speaking  areas).  Those  who  wish  to  teach  in  col- 
lege must  plan  on  graduate  study. 

Description  of  the  Major  Available  in  French,  German,  Italian,  Rus- 
sian, or  Spanish,  the  major  in  Modern  Languages  normally  requires 
advanced  courses  in  two  languages.  The  freshman  year  usually  is  con- 
sidered a  year  to  establish  the  basic  foundation  upon  which  the  major 
will  be  formed.  It  should  be  utilized  to  fulfill  as  many  general  require- 
ments as  possible  so  that  during  the  upperclass  years  more  time  can  be 
devoted  to  the  major  discipline. 

Normally  the  study  of  a  second  (minor)  language  begins  in  the  second 
year.  However,  in  exceptional  cases,  this  pattern  may  be  altered  to  per- 
mit students  to  begin  their  second  language  in  the  freshman  year  or, 
perhaps,  postpone  it  to  a  later  year.  The  Modern  Language  major  should 
plan  to  take  at  least  two  language  electives  per  quarter  from  the  begin- 
ning of  the  second  year.  Again,  of  course,  this  pattern  may  be  varied  to 
fit  the  needs  of  the  individual  student. 

It  should  be  noted  that  the  requirements  indicated  here  for  the  major 
and  minor  languages  are  mininnum  requirements.  When  at  all  possible, 
a  student  is  strongly  encouraged  to  go  beyond  them,  and  even,  per- 
haps, to  pursue  a  third  language. 


38  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

The  Department  is  currently  designing  a  one-language  major.  Stu- 
dents are  urged  to  consult  their  departmental  advisers  for  further  infor- 
mation concerning  this  program  and  other  possible  curriculum  changes. 

A  View  of  the  Major  The  Department  offers  a  choice  of  either  a  Bach- 
elor of  Arts  or  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree.  For  either  degree,  the 
student  must  select  a  major  as  well  as  a  minor  language  from  French, 
German,  Italian,  Russian,  or  Spanish.  Both  degrees  require  Freshman 
English. 

The  B.A.  is,  of  course,  the  traditional  degree  of  this  discipline.  Candi- 
dates for  the  B.A.  must  satisfy  the  College  requirements  for  graduation 
and,  in  addition,  must  meet  the  departmental  requirements  in  their  major. 
These  requirements  are  sixteen  quarter  hours  in  history  (any  history 
courses  relevant  to  the  major  are  acceptable),  eight  quarter  hours  of 
Survey  of  English  Literature,  a  minimum  of  thirty-two  quarter  hours  of 
advanced  work  in  the  major  language,  and  eight  quarter  hours  of  ad- 
vanced work  in  the  minor  language.  Advanced  work  may  be  defined  as 
any  course  beyond  the  intermediate  level  of  the  language. 

The  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in  Modern  Languages  differs  from 
the  B.A.  primarily  in  its  emphasis.  Whereas  the  B.A.  requires  that  the 
student  satisfy  the  full  general  requirements  of  the  College  of  Arts  and 
Sciences,  the  B.S.  waives  certain  of  these  requirements  in  favor  of  a 
more  concentrated  program  in  the  major  area. 

In  addition,  the  candidate  for  the  B.S.  degree  must  complete  eight 
quarter  hours  of  composition  and  conversation  in  the  major  language 
and  eight  quarter  hours  of  composition  and  conversation  in  the  minor 
language.  Candidates  then  must  complete  forty  additional  quarter  hours 
of  advanced  work  in  the  major  language  and  sixteen  additional  quarter 
credits  of  advanced  work  in  the  minor. 

Description  of  the  Minor  For  students  interested  in  acquiring  profi- 
ciency in  one  foreign  language  as  an  adjunct  to  their  major,  the  Depart- 
ment offers  a  minor  in  f\/!odern  Languages,  open  to  students  of  all 
colleges.  The  details  of  the  requirements  for  a  minor  vary  slightly  from 
language  to  language,  but,  in  all  cases,  the  student  is  required  to  take  a 
total  of  six  courses.  Generally,  two  composition  and  conversation 
courses,  a  civilization  course,  and  an  introductory  course  in  literature 
are  required.  The  remaining  courses  are  free  electives  drawn  from  ad- 
vanced courses  offered  by  the  Department. 

Students  are  urged  to  consult  the  Department  adviser  for  further  infor- 
mation about  the  minor. 

Additional  Information  In  the  basic  language  courses,  attendance  in 
the  language  laboratory  is  required  for  two  half-hour  sessions  per  week. 
The  facilities  of  the  language  laboratory  are  also  available  on  an  optional 
basis  for  advanced  work.  The  Department  lounge  is  available  to  Modern 
Language  students.  See  page  81  for  information  on  courses  in  Amencan 
Sign  Language.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Philosophy  deals  with  a  wide  range  of  questions  and  issues 
generated  by  various  aspects  of  human  experience,  by  the  beliefs  and 
theories  people  hold,  and  by  the  practical  problems  human  beings  con- 
front. Philosophy  includes  both  questions  and  theories  related  to  art, 
religion,  morality,  society,  and  natural  and  social  sciences.  Because  of 
the  breadth  of  its  concerns,  the  study  of  philosophy  provides  a  unique 
opportunity  for  students  to  examine  their  beliefs  in  many  areas  through 
critical  reflection. 

Through  readings,  discussion,  and  writing,  philosophy  students  can 
encounter  and  examine  questions  concerning  the  nature  and  validity  of 
religious  beliefs,  moral  judgments,  and  scientific  theories,  as  well  as 
questions  of  values  and  social  policy  in  such  areas  as  law,  medicine, 
and  technology.  In  all  these  areas,  analysis  of  issues  and  evaluation  of 
arguments  provide  an  opportunity  to  understand  diverse  claims  to 
knowledge  and  areas  of  controversy. 

The  program  includes  courses  that  may  help  strengthen  the  student's 
work  in  other  areas  and  provide  an  understanding  of  the  methods  and 
traditions  of  philosophical  and  religious  thought.  A  major  in  Philosophy 
may  also  help  a  student  to  acquire  a  broad  background  in  the  humani- 
ties and  to  sharpen  his  or  her  critical  abilities  in  preparation  for  graduate 
or  professional  study  in  many  areas.  Indeed,  former  Philosophy  majors 
can  be  found  in  the  most  diverse  of  professional  careers.  For  students 
majoring  in  another  discipline,  the  Department  offers  a  minor  program, 
which  can  be  a  valuable  supplement  to  most  fields. 

The  program  in  Religion  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  acquire  an 
understanding  of  religious  experience,  both  as  an  individual  response 
and  within  its  social,  historical,  literary,  and  political  context.  Specific 
religions  (Christian,  Jewish,  Hindu,  etc.)  are  studied  as  well  as  the  myth- 
ical and  mystical  dimensions  of  religious  experience  in  general.  The 
program  strives  to  clarify  the  relation  between  the  religious  experience 
and  other  facets  of  human  life  that  are  the  concern  of  both  the  liberal 
arts  and  the  professions.  Although  a  major  is  not  offered  in  Religion,  the 
program  attempts  to  provide  a  basic  introduction  to  religious  studies. 
Both  introductory  and  intermediate-level  courses  are  offered. 


40  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

Description  of  the  Major  Northeastern's  program  for  a  Philosophy 
major  is  designed  to  offer  students  a  balanced  understanding  of  the 
nature  of  philosophy  and  particular  philosophical  problems  that  arise  in 
the  various  arts  and  sciences.  A  maximum  number  of  electives  has  been 
provided  so  that  students  may  choose  in  accordance  with  their  own 
backgrounds  and  interests.  Students  may  pursue  either  a  five-year  co- 
operative or  a  four-year  full-time  course  of  study. 

All  degree  candidates  in  Philosophy  must  take  at  least  eight  quarter 
hours  in  English  and  fifty-two  quarter  hours  in  the  Department  and  must 
meet  the  following  specific  requirements; 

1 .  Classical  Greek  Philosophy  and  Modern  Philosophy 

2.  Introduction  to  Logic  or  Symbolic  Logic  (The  Department  emphat- 
ically recommends  that  students  contemplating  graduate  studies 
in  Philosophy  take  Symbolic  Logic.) 

3.  Theory  of  Knowledge  or  Metaphysics  or  Moral  Philosophy  and 

4.  At  least  one  seminar 

5.  Thirty-two  quarter  hours  of  Philosophy  electives,  to  be  selected 
after  consultation  with  the  student's  departmental  adviser. 

Description  of  the  Minor  To  attempt  to  meet  the  needs  of  students 
who  are  majoring  in  other  areas  but  have  a  special  interest  in  Philosophy, 
the  Department  offers  a  minor  in  Philosophy.  The  program  contains  an 
essential  core  of  courses,  as  well  as  a  great  range  of  electives  to  accom- 
modate individual  interests. 

Specific  requirements: 

1 .  An  introduction  to  philosophy  course; 

2.  Either  Classical  Greek  Philosophy  or  Modern  Philosophy; 

3.  Either  Introductory  Logic  or  Symbolic  Logic; 

4.  Either  Moral  Philosophy  or  Theory  of  Knowledge  or  Metaphysics 
or  Philosophy  of  Mind;

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  Department  of  Speech  Communication  seeks  to  help  stim- 
ulate the  personal  and  professional  growth  of  the  student  through  a 
study  of  the  pnnciples  and  methods  of  communication. 

Courses  are  designed  to  aid  students  in  understanding  the  commu- 
nication process  and  the  roles  of  communication  in  society.  The  Speech 
Communication  program  also  helps  students  to  increase  their  self- 
awareness  and  heighten  personal  development  by  offering  theoretical 
and  experiential  learning  opportunities. 

More  than  twenty-five  courses  in  such  areas  as  persuasion,  group 
discussion  and  conference  techniques,  interpersonal  communication, 
mass  media,  broadcasting,  communication  theory,  and  public  address 
are  designed  to  meet  the  needs  of  students,  whether  majoring  or  minor- 
ing  in  Speech  Communication  or  selecting  courses  for  personal  devel- 
opment to  supplement  professional  training  in  other  fields. 

Description  of  the  IVIajor  The  objectives  of  the  Speech  Communica- 
tion major  are  threefold: 

1 .  To  stimulate  the  student's  personal  growth  and  development  in 
perception  and  self-expression  through  the  study  of  historical, 
contemporary,  and  artistic  aspects  of  speech  and  communication, 
and  to  provide  organized  knowledge  and  critical  insight; 

2.  To  help  prepare  the  student  for  professions  that  require  both  a 
theoretical  and  a  technical  knowledge  of  communication,  such  as 
broadcasting,  the  law,  government  service,  public  relations,  ad- 
vertising, social  service,  industrial  communication,  and  similar 
fields; 

3.  To  help  prepare  the  student  for  advanced  graduate  study  in  com- 
munication and  other  professional  fields. 

A  View  of  the  IVIajor  Students  may  receive  either  a  B.A.  or  B.S.  degree 
through  concentrations  related  to  mass  communication,  interpersonal 
communication,  organizational  communication,  communication  re- 
search, communication  theory,  advocacy,  and  public  address.  Through 
selection  of  the  appropriate  concentration  within  the  Department  and 
complementary  elective  courses  in  other  departments,  students  are  af- 
forded considerable  flexibility  in  tailoring  their  programs  to  satisfy  their 
personal  and  professional  needs. 

To  further  provide  for  the  unique  needs  of  students  with  specialized 
interests  or  professional  goals,  the  Department  offers  directed-study  and 
internship  programs.  Virtually  every  Speech  Communication  major  com- 
pletes one  or  more  projects  in  each  of  these  programs. 


42  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

In  directed  study,  the  student  works  closely  with  a  chosen  faculty 
adviser  while  connpleting  a  student-selected  research  or  performance 
project.  Generally  commensurate  with  the  workload  of  a  one-quarter 
course,  directed-study  projects  deal  with  such  areas  as  surveying  and 
interpreting  communicative  behavior,  studies  of  the  rhetoric  of  political 
campaigns,  or  the  effects  of  the  media  on  society. 

The  internship  program  offers  students  the  opportunity  for  profes- 
sional development  through  field  experiences  designed  to  complement 
or  implement  their  classroom  training.  Distinct  from  the  Co-op  Plan,  the 
internship  program  provides  academic  credit  for  unpaid,  part-time,  on- 
site  activities,  during  the  student's  academic  quarters.  Internships,  care- 
fully selected  by  the  student  and  faculty  advisers  with  an  understanding 
based  on  the  student's  goals,  often  result  in  the  student's  placement  in 
active  roles  in  commercial  broadcasting  studios,  advertising  firms,  and 
governmental  agencies. 

Description  of  the  l\/linor  Students  majoring  in  such  fields  as  Political 
Science,  Business,  and  Human  or  Social  Services  or  Education  may 
develop  a  minor  that  complements  their  academic  major  by  selecting 
appropriate  courses  with  the  aid  of  a  Speech  Communication  faculty 
adviser. 

Basic  theoretical  competence  and  personal  skills  in  the  areas  of  intra- 
personal,  interpersonal,  group,  organizational,  and  public  communica- 
tion may  be  acquired  by  taking  the  following  four  core  courses  required 
of  all  minors:  Introduction  to  Communication  Theory,  Business  and 
Professional  Speaking,  Interpersonal  Communication  I,  and  Group  Dis- 
cussion. 

Individual  needs  and  specific  goals  may  be  satisfied  by  selecting 
three  additional  electives  with  the  approval  of  the  Speech  Communica- 
tion faculty.  Recommended  elective  groupings  have  been  developed  for 
students  concentrating  in  Management,  Marketing,  Elementary  or  Sec- 
ondary Education,  Human  or  Social  Services,  Political  Science,  Sociol- 
ogy, Psychology,  and  Journalism.

Natural  Sciences  and  Mathematics 

The  natural  sciences  are  disciplines  based  chiefly  on  objective,  quanti- 
tative hypotheses  that  can  be  confirmed  or  refuted  by  experimentation 
involving  numerical  measurements.  These  disciplines  are  sometimes 
referred  to  as  the  "exact  sciences."  However,  that  may  be  somewhat 
misleading,  since  controlled  approximations  are  more  characteristic  of 
them  than  exactness. 

The  older  term  used  for  the  natural  sciences  (in  the  seventeenth  and 
eighteenth  centuries)  was  "natural  philosophy."  This  embraced  the 
physical  and  life  sciences  as  well  as  mathematics.  The  great  treatise  of 
Isaac  Newton,  which  altered  completely  the  understanding  of  the  phys- 
ical universe,  was  titled  Philosophiae  naturalis  prlncipia  mathematica 
(Latin  for  Mathematical  Principles  of  Natural  Philosophy). 

Although  mathematics  is  not  confined  to  the  study  of  nature  as  such — 
having  more  basic  roots  in  subjective  thought  than  in  objective  reality — 
it  is  nearly  always  grouped  with  the  natural  sciences.  Indeed,  mathe- 
matics is  sometimes  referred  to  as  the  "queen  and  servant  of  the  sci- 
ences." 

In  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  the  major  disciplines  comprising 
the  Natural  Sciences  and  Mathematics  Division  are  as  follows:

the  level  of  molecules  and  cells  through  the  level  of  organs  and  organ 
systems  to  the  level  of  populations,  species,  ecosystems,  and  evolution. 
The  major  also  offers  the  mathematical,  chemical,  and  physical  back- 
ground necessary  to  understand  biology  and  to  help  train  students  in 
practical  scientific  skills  associated  with  each  of  these  areas  of  study. 
Finally,  it  allows  students  to  begin  to  specialize  in  a  subdiscipline  of 
biology. 

Description  of  the  Major  The  major  consists  of  ten  biology  courses  in 
addition  to  those  required  in  chemistry,  physics,  and  mathematics.  Six 
of  the  biology  courses  constitute  the  required  "Biocore":  Principles  of 
Biology  I,  II,  and  III;  Environmental  and  Population  Biology;  Genetics  and 
Developmental  Biology;  and  Cell  Physiology  and  Biochemistry.  The 
other  four  biology  courses  for  the  major  may  be  chosen  from  a  variety  of 
upperclass  biology  electives  which  require  some  or  all  of  the  "Biocore" 
as  prerequisites.  It  is  usually  possible  to  follow  the  prescribed  sequence 
if  a  student  has  decided  on  the  major  in  the  freshman  or  sophomore 
year.  For  students  who  may  enter  the  major  in  the  middler  year,  it  is  often 
possible  to  complete  the  major  in  the  normal  time  by  taking  some  of  the 
electives  concurrently  with  the  latter,  "Biocore"  courses. 

To  graduate  with  a  major  in  Biology,  a  student  must  have  a  cumulative 
Quality  Point  Average  (QPA)  of  2.0  for  all  science  and  mathematics 
courses  required  for  the  major.  There  are  two  programs  within  the  Biol- 
ogy major,  one  leading  to  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  and  the  other  to 
the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree.  Both  the  B.A.  and  the  B.S.  degrees 
require  a  modern  language.  The  B.S.  program  is  more  rigorous  and 


Biology  /  45 

extensive  in  its  mathematics  and  science  requirements  and  thus  may 
offer  better  preparation  for  some  areas  of  postgraduate  study.  The  dif- 
ference is  mainly  one  of  emphasis,  however. 

After  completing  the  "Biocore,"  students  interested  in  independent 
research  may  arrange  with  individual  faculty  to  undertake  Directed 
Study;  if  eligible,  they  may  be  invited  to  undertake  a  more  extensive 
Honors  Program  involving  up  to  four  quarters  of  research. 

The  Department  publishes  a  booklet,  The  Biology  Undergraduate  Ad- 
visory Book,  which  explains  the  required  and  recommended  courses 
and  the  QPA  standards  in  science  for  Biology  majors.  The  Advisory  Book 
is  available  in  the  Biology  Office,  Room  403,  Richards  Hall.  Students 
intending  to  major  in  Biology  should  obtain  a  copy  as  early  as  possible 
after  their  enrollment  at  Northeastern.  Biology  majors  wishing  to  pursue 
a  minor  in  another  field  should  see  their  biology  adviser  as  early  in  their 
program  as  possible,  for  coordination  of  major  and  minor  requirements. 

A  View  of  the  Major  The  Biology  major  provides  an  opportunity  for 
excellent  preparation  in  a  wide  variety  of  careers  or  professions  in  the 
life  sciences,  including  medical,  dental,  and  other  health-related  profes- 
sions. Graduate  study  leading  to  a  master's  or  doctoral  degree  can  open 
careers  in  upper-level  teaching  and/or  research  in  one  of  the  specialized 
areas  of  biology,  such  as  zoology,  botany,  microbiology,  physiology, 
ecology,  marine  biology,  cell  biology,  or  biochemistry.  Biology  majors 
may  also  pursue  postgraduate  training  in  such  health-related  areas  as 
nutrition,  public  health,  or  medical  technology. 

Biology  majors  not  wishing  to  enter  professional  or  graduate  schools 
may  find  employment  on  technical  levels  in  federal,  state,  industrial, 
hospital,  or  university  laboratories  doing  research,  survey,  or  quality  con- 
trol in  a  biological  area.  After  graduation  they  may  also  be  able  to  enter 
directly  into  positions  in  industries  involved  in  the  manufacture  and  dis- 
tribution of  pharmaceuticals,  biological  products,  food,  or  scientific 
equipment.  Many  biologists  are  employed  at  all  levels  in  fisheries,  for- 
estry services,  county  agencies,  museums,  aquariums,  research  ves- 
sels, and  marine  stations. 

Preprofessional  students  (for  example,  premedical  or  predental)  are 
urged  to  consult  with  the  preprofessional  advisory  committee  early  in 
their  careers  at  Northeastern.  Students  are  cautioned  that  the  successful 
completion  of  the  required  preprofessional  courses  by  no  means  en- 
sures admission  to  a  professional  school  since  other  factors  are  also 
Involved. 

Description  of  the  Minor  A  minor  in  Biology  consists  of  any  six  biology 
courses  for  which  the  student  has  the  prerequisites,  plus  two  more 
courses  which  may  be  biology  courses  or  courses  from  other  depart- 
ments that  serve  as  prerequisites  for  Biology  courses.  At  least  five  of  the 
total  eight  courses  must  include  laboratory,  and  a  student  may  not  count 
toward  the  Biology  minor  more  than  one  course,  or  course  sequence, 
that  covers  substantially  the  same  material. 

To  accommodate  the  needs  of  students  majoring  in  many  different 
fields,  the  Biology  minor  requirements  have  been  phrased  in  a  very 
general  and  flexible  way.  To  ensure  that  course  selection  is  sound  and 
appropriate  to  the  student's  background,  each  student's  Biology  minor 


46 /College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  ■ 

program  must  receive  the  signed  approval  of  the  Biology  minors'  ad- 
viser. The  student  should  obtain  this  required  approval  of  his/her  pro- 
gram before  the  start  or,  at  the  latest,  by  the  end  of  the  first  biology 
course.  Failure  to  do  so  may  result  in  courses'  not  being  counted  for  a 
minor,  if  the  adviser  finds  them  to  have  been  inappropriate  selections. 

The  academic  standards  for  a  minor  in  Biology  are  the  same  as  those 
for  a  Biology  major;  namely,  a  QPA  of  2.0  must  be  achieved  for  those 
courses  used  to  satisfy  the  minor  requirements.  Courses  taken  on  a 
pass/fail  basis  are  not  acceptable  for  minor  credit. 

Suggested  course  groupings  for  a  Biology  minor  have  been  devel- 
oped for  students  with  different  backgrounds  in  college  mathematics 
and  science.  The  "core"  minor  for  students  with  considerable  course 
work  in  mathematics,  chemistry,  or  physics  provides  the  basic  founda- 
tion on  which  a  Biology  major  is  built,  without  advanced  specialization. 
For  students  with  less  or  no  college  mathematics/science  background, 
three  other  minor  options  provide  the  opportunity  for  first-level  exposure 
to  the  basic  pnnciples  of  Biology,  plus  an  opportunity  to  achieve  some 
advanced  specialization  in  plant  and/or  animal  studies  or  to  explore 
human  biology,  molecular  biology,  biochemistry,  and  the  problems  of 
the  environment.  For  further  information,  consult  with  the  Biology  minors' 
adviser. 


Laboratories 


The  Biology  Department  has  specially  equipped  teaching  laboratories 
for  general  biology,  botany,  anatomy,  microbiology,  microscopy,  physi- 
ology, zoology,  and  cell  biology.  Equipment  for  field  work,  museum 
specimens,  models,  charts,  and  closed-circuit  television  are  employed 
in  laboratory  instruction.  Additional  facilities  include  aquarium  and  ani- 
mal rooms,  stockrooms,  preparation  rooms,  research  areas,  a  vertebrate 
museum,  and  a  large  suburban  greenhouse  and  woodlot.  The  Depart- 
ment has  close  association  with  the  University's  Marine  Science  and 
Maritime  Studies  Center  in  Nahant  and  with  the  University's  Electron 
Microscopy  Center.

Professional  Preparation 


Alms  The  educational  objectives  of  the  Chemistry  Department  are  to 
give  students  the  opportunity  to  (1)  experience  the  intellectual  stimula- 
tion of  studying  a  physical  science;  (2)  grasp  the  basic  pnnciples  and 
techniques  that  are  central  to  a  variety  of  chemistry-related  careers;  and 
(3)  prepare  for  graduate  study  in  chemistry  or  related  fields.  These  ob- 
jectives are  implemented  by  the  Department's  highly  research-oriented 
faculty,  including  leaders  in  various  fields  of  the  science. 

Description  of  the  Major  Chemistry  is  concerned  with  the  structure 
and  properties  of  substances  and  with  the  transformations  they  undergo. 
The  undergraduate  program  leads  to  either  a  B.A.  or  a  B.S.  degree  in 
Chemistry.  It  is  relatively  small,  having  a  combined  total  of  about  sixty 
undergraduates  throughout  all  levels.  Class  sizes,  too,  are  not  large.  For 
example,  the  typical  size  of  the  freshman  Chemistry  course  given  to 
chemistry  and  other  science  majors  is  about  forty  students.  The  upper- 
class  chemistry  major  courses  are  generally  smaller.  All  of  the  courses 
are  taught  by  full-time  chemistry  faculty  members,  and  there  is  consid- 
erable opportunity  for  direct  interaction  between  faculty  and  students. 
Both  the  chemistry  curriculum  and  the  departmental  facilities  are  ap- 
proved by  the  American  Chemical  Society  (A.C.S.);  thus,  the  B.S.  de- 
gree which  we  award  is  A.C.S.  certified  and  therefore  carnes  national 
recognition  for  quality. 

Modern  chemistry  is  the  cornerstone  for  a  large  number  of  professions 
and  industries.  Challenging  career  opportunities  exist  in  almost  all  tech- 
nical fields  in  which  functions  such  as  research,  development,  produc- 
tion, sales,  market  analysis,  quality  control,  and  management  are 
involved.  Tfie  Chemistry  major  programs  offer  the  students  an  excellent 
opportunity  for  preparation  In  the  study  of  medicine,  dentistry,  and  for 
advanced  study  in  many  fields  of  science.  For  students  who  choose  to 


48  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

participate  in  the  Cooperative  Plan  of  Education  there  can  be  additional 
professional  benefits.  The  practical  experience  gained  on  a  job  can 
place  chemistry  in  a  more  realistic  perspective  than  academic  training 
alone  and  may  help  students  to  prepare  themselves  for  better  employ- 
ment prospects  upon  graduation. 

The  Department  publishes  an  informational  booklet,  Chemistry  at 
Northeastern,  which  describes  the  Chemistry  major  curriculum  and  re- 
quirements in  detail.  Interested  students  may  obtain  a  copy  of  this  book- 
let in  the  main  office  of  the  Chemistry  Department,  Room  1 02,  Hurtig  Hall 
or  from  the  Department  of  Admissions,  150  Richards  Hall. 

A  View  of  the  Major  The  Department  offers  two  major  programs  that 
lead  to  the  B.S.  or  B.A.  degree.  Both  are  based  normally  on  the  five-year 
cooperative-study  plan,  but  academically  equivalent  four-year  study  op- 
tions are  available.  The  two  degree  curricula  differ  mainly  in  their  arts 
and  sciences  content  and  advanced  science  course  requirements.  De- 
partmental advisers  are  ready  to  provide  assistance  and  counseling  to 
all  Chemistry  majors  in  relation  to  course  selections  and  other  profes- 
sional matters. 

The  Chemistry  major  programs  at  Northeastern  are  based  on  a  career- 
oriented  concept.  The  basic  core  of  courses  in  chemistry,  mathematics, 
and  physics  may  be  supplemented  with  selected  courses  in  other  areas. 
Thus,  the  program  offers  the  student  an  opportunity  to  prepare  for  any 
one  of  a  wide  variety  of  careers.  Alumni  have  pursued  careers  in  many 
areas,  such  as: 

—  The  health  professions  (medicine,  dentistry) 

—  Professional  and  technical  employment  in  industry 

—  Chemical  sales  and  management 

—  Teaching  and  research  via  graduate  study 

—  Clinical  chemistry,  medicinal  chemistry,  and  pharmaceutical 
chemistry 

—  Geochemistry,  mineralogy,  and  environmental  chemistry 

—  Forensic  chemistry 

Departmental  advisers  suggest  various  course  options  for  students 
interested  in  preparing  for  any  of  the  above  careers.  The  vanety  of 
careers  open  to  persons  with  strong  backgrounds  in  chemistry  is  exten- 
sive, and  other  options  can  be  constructed  from  the  large  number  of 
courses  offered  at  the  University. 

A  large  part  of  the  curriculum  is  common  to  all  options.  It  consists  of 
courses  in  English,  calculus,  physics,  and  basic  chemistry,  which  are 
taken  in  the  freshman  year.  Students  may  be  exempted  from  the  General 
Chemistry  courses  by  passing  equivalency  tests;  in  this  case  other 
courses  are  substituted.  In  the  upperclass  years,  students  take  courses 
in  organic,  inorganic,  physical,  and  analytical  chemistry.  For  the  B.S. 
degree,  some  additional  advanced  mathematics  and  science  courses 
are  required.  German  or  Russian  is  strongly  recommended  for  students 
who  plan  to  pursue  graduate  study  in  the  sciences. 

Qualified  students  are  encouraged  to  undertake  a  research  project 
under  the  supervision  of  a  faculty  member.  An  honors  program  is  open 
to  especially  able  students. 

Description  of  the  Minor  A  minor  program  in  Chemistry  is  available 
for  students  majoring  in  other  fields.  It  consists  of  courses  in  general, 
analytical,  organic,  and  physical  chemistry.  Further  information  may  be 
obtained  from  the  Chemistry  Department  Office,  Room  102,  Hurtig  Hall.

Accreditation 


The  Chemistry  programs  at  Northeastern  are  approved  by  the  Americari 
Chemical  Society.  The  B.S.  degree  meets  the  Society's  requirements  for 
certification,  which  means  that  a  certified  graduate  is  eligible  for  full 
membership  in  the  A.C.S.  after  two  years  of  experience. 


Facilities  and  Research 


The  mam  facilities  of  the  Chemistry  Department  are  housed  in  Hurtig 
Hall,  a  modern,  air-conditioned,  five-story  building  that  contains  equip- 
ment for  up-to-date  teaching  and  research.  Faculty  offices  are  located 
there,  as  is  the  James  Flack  Norris  Room,  which  serves  as  a  lounge  for 
undergraduate  Chemistry  majors.  Additional  research  facilities  are  lo- 
cated in  the  Forsyth  Building  and  in  the  Institute  of  Chemical  Analysis, 
Applications,  and  Forensic  Science.  The  Department's  major  research 
equipment  includes  electron  microscopes,  mass  spectrometers,  lasers. 
X-ray  diffractometers,  nuclear  magnetic-resonance  and  electron  spin- 
resonance  spectrometers,  Gouy  and  Faraday  magnetic  balances, 
Mossbauer  spectrometers,  and  a  variety  of  ultraviolet  and  infrared  spec- 
trometers. Undergraduate  students  taking  advanced  courses  or  working 
on  research  projects  may  utilize  certain  of  these  instruments. 

Active  research  programs  are  under  way  in  synthetic  and  mechanistic 
organic  chemistry,  natural  products  chemistry,  inorganic  chemistry, 
chemical  oceanography,  photochemistry,  and  spectroscopy,  theoretical 
chemistry,  analytical  chemistry,  separation  science,  and  solid-state 
chemistry.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  Department  of  Earth  Sciences  offers  a  degree  program  in 
geology  as  an  in-depth  study  of  a  major  area  of  the  earth  sciences,  as 
well  as  courses  in  geology,  oceanography,  and  astronomy,  which  are 
available  to  all  students. 

Description  of  the  Geology  Major  Geology  is  a  broad-based  science 
that  deals  with  the  study  of  the  physical  features,  composition,  history, 
and  processes  of  the  earth.  The  study  of  geology,  however,  also  de- 
mands an  understanding  of  the  application  of  scientific  knowledge  to 
current  problems  and  concerns.  For  example,  the  manufacture  of  an 
enormous  number  of  products  composed  of  metals  and  petroleum  de- 
rivatives is  a  primary  basis  of  the  economy  of  our  society.  Understanding 
the  origins  of  these  natural  resources  and  the  ways  in  which  to  ensure 
their  continued  supply  is,  therefore,  one  of  the  major  roles  of  today's 
geologists.  Only  a  small  portion  of  the  earth  has  been  studied  in  detail, 
leaving  many  unexplored  frontiers  for  each  new  graduate  in  the  field. 

A  View  of  the  Major  Since  the  study  of  geology  utilizes  principles  of 
other  physical  sciences,  students  should  complete  basic  courses  in 
chemistry,  physics,  and  mathematics  along  with  Physical  and  Historical 
Geology  during  their  first  two  years.  After  completing  the  introductory 
geology  courses  and  one  year  of  chemistry,  every  Geology  major  takes 
a  three-course  sequence — Descriptive  Mineralogy,  Optical  Crystallog- 
raphy, and  Optical  Mineralogy — since  a  knowledge  of  minerals  is  fun- 
damental to  geological  understanding.  In  addition  to  the  required 
introductory  and  mineralogy  courses,  the  student  chooses  a  minimum 
of  six  (for  the  B.A.  degree)  or  eight  (for  the  B.S.  degree)  additional 
geology  courses.  There  are  also  electives  required  in  the  areas  of  the 
humanities  and  social  sciences. 

Each  student  is  assigned  to  an  adviser  in  the  Department.  The  adviser 
assists  students  in  making  appropriate  course  selections  as  their  knowl- 
edge increases  and  special  interests  develop.  Though  not  required, 
courses  in  petrology,  structural  geology,  and  paleontology  are  usually 
among  the  electives  chosen  by  undergraduates. 

During  the  junior  and  senior  years,  students  may  select  undergradu- 
ate research  as  one  of  their  elective  courses.  Under  the  supervision  of  a 
faculty  member,  a  problem  is  selected,  defined,  and  researched.  These 
projects  offer  undergraduates  the  opportunity  to  go  much  more  deeply 
into  some  aspect  of  geology  that  holds  particular  interest  for  them.  Stu- 
dents who  meet  the  college  requirements  for  the  honors  program  may 
also  be  invited  to  carry  out  an  undergraduate  research  project. 

In  addition  to  its  major  curriculum  the  Earth  Sciences  Department  also 
offers  a  minor  program  in  Geology.

Special  Information 


Field  Trips  Though  much  geology  can  be  learned  from  textbooks  and 
in  the  laboratory,  a  sound  geological  education  must  also  include  first- 
hand experience  in  the  field  and  direct  observation  of  geological  phe- 
nomena. Whenever  it  is  appropriate,  field  work  on  an  individual  or  group 
basis  will  be  part  of  courses.

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  The  Department  offers  interested  students  the  opportunity  to  de- 
velop and  expand  their  abilities  in  this  exact  science,  one  of  the  oldest 
and  most  basic  of  all  the  sciences. 

Description  of  the  Major  The  Department  offers  two  programs  of 
study  in  mathematics.  One  of  the  programs  in  mathematics  leads  to  a 
Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  and  requires  a  minimum  of  thirteen  mathematics 
courses.  Students  in  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  program  also  must  complete  a 
foreign  language  requirement.  Because  mathematics-related  material  is 
more  often  written  in  French,  German,  Italian,  or  Russian,  one  of  these 
languages  is  recommended.  The  Department  also  offers  a  Bachelor  of 
Science  degree  program,  which  requires  a  minimum  of  sixteen  mathe- 
matics courses  but  does  not  require  the  study  of  a  foreign  language. 

A  View  of  the  Major  All  students  must  take  a  basic  sequence  of  math- 
ematics courses,  which,  as  a  rule,  should  be  completed  by  the  end  of 
the  sophomore  year.  The  sequence  offers  students  the  opportunity  to 


Mathe.Tiatics  /  53 

acquire  a  working  knowledge  of  the  calculus  of  one  and  several  varia- 
bles, differential  equations,  some  linear  algebra,  and  numerical  meth- 
ods. With  respect  to  the  latter,  although  a  computer  programming  course 
is  not  required,  students  will  be  encouraged  and  eventually  expected  to 
learn  the  basic  programming  skills  necessary  for  numerical  solutions  of 
complex  problems. 

A  transition  from  the  basic  sequence  to  more  advanced  parts  of  the 
curriculum  is  provided  by  Analysis  l-ll  and  Advanced  Linear  Algebra  I. 
These  courses  are  prerequisites  for  many  advanced  courses  in  applied 
analysis,  complex  analysis,  topology,  and  foundations. 

As  a  rule,  students  planning  to  take  a  substantial  number  of  mathe- 
matics courses  (e.g..  two  per  quarter)  should  take  Analysis  l-ll  and  Ad- 
vanced Linear  Algebra  I  in  the  middler  year.  Students  may  wish  to  take 
a  prerequisite  for  more  advanced  courses  in  algebra  and/or  one  that 
includes  linear,  nonlinear,  and  dynamic  programming.  Courses  in  prob- 
ability, statistics,  and  numerical  analysis  may  also  be  taken  directly  after 
the  basic  sequence. 

Double  Majors  It  is  possible  for  mathematics  majors  to  follow  pro- 
grams leading  to  a  double  major  in  mathematics  and  another  discipline 
from  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  or  the  College  of  Computer  Sci- 
ence.

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  Physics  is  concerned  with  the  fundamental  principles  that  gov- 
ern natural  phenomena,  ranging  in  scale  from  collisions  of  subatomic 
particles,  through  the  behavior  of  solids  and  liquids,  to  exploding  stars 
and  colliding  galaxies. 

Understanding  these  principles  can  help  us  unravel,  explore,  and 
predict  the  basic  phenomena  and  processes  of  not  only  physics,  but 
also  of  biology,  chemistry,  and  the  earth  and  space  sciences.  Such  an 
understanding  will  also  help  with  the  creation,  development,  and  oper- 
ation of  a  broad  spectrum  of  micro  and  macro  devices  ranging  from  the 
silicon  chip  electronic  systems  and  lasers  of  today's  high  technology  to 
the  more  conventional  mechanical  and  electrical  instruments  and  ma- 
chinery currently  used  in  research  and  industrial  organizations. 

The  educational  objectives  of  the  Physics  undergraduate  programs 
are  to  provide  students  with  the  opportunity  to 

1 .  experience  the  intellectual  stimulation  of  studying  science  and, 
specifically,  physics  and  astrophysics; 

2.  experience,  by  association,  the  excitement  of  the  front-line 
research  programs  ongoing  in  the  Department; 

3.  achieve  an  understanding  of  the  basic  principles  and  techniques 
that  are  central  to  the  broad  array  of  physics-related  careers; 

4.  prepare  for  graduate  study  in  physics  or  related  fields. 


Physics  /  55 

To  this  end  the  Physics  Department  offers  undergraduate  courses  at 
four  levels: 

1 .  descriptive  courses  intended  primarily  for  nonscience  majors  with 
limited  mathematical  backgrounds; 

2.  general  survey  courses  intended  for  students  in  scientific  and  en- 
gineering fields; 

3.  advanced  courses  focusing  on  particular  areas  of  physics  and 
intended  mainly,  but  not  exclusively,  for  Physics  majors;  and 

4.  highly  advanced  courses  intended  mainly,  but  not  exclusively,  for 
prospective  graduate  students  in  Physics. 

Description  of  the  Major  Students  who  major  in  Physics  are  offered 
the  opportunity  to  prepare  for  a  wide  variety  of  careers.  In  addition  to 
work  in  industrial,  government,  and  high-technology  laboratories  in 
areas  of  applied  physics,  students  who  have  mastered  the  fundamental 
principles  emphasized  in  a  physics  education  may  find  opportunities  in 
allied  fields,  such  as  biophysics,  computer  sciences,  geophysics,  med- 
ical and  radiation  physics,  and  various  branches  of  engineering.  Addi- 
tionally, many  students  majoring  in  Physics  go  on  to  pursue  advanced 
degrees  in  physics  and  related  fields. 

A  student  majoring  in  Physics  may  follow  either  a  four-year  full-time 
program  or  a  five-year  co-op  program.  The  latter  program  allows  stu- 
dents to  alternate  between  the  classroom  and  off-campus  work  experi- 
ences in  research  and  professional  organizations  located  not  only  in  the 
important  high-technology  centers  in  and  around  Boston,  but  elsewhere 
in  the  United  States.  The  co-op  program  enhances  and  complements 
the  educational  process,  and  helps  provide  financial  assistance  and  the 
development  of  valuable  career  contacts  with  employers.  In  a  number 
of  cases,  students  in  the  Physics  major  work  on  co-op  with  a  high- 
technology  company,  and  then  return  to  school  and  work  with  a  related 
aspect  of  one  of  the  research  programs  of  the  Department  either  for 
credit  or  as  work-study. 

A  View  of  the  IVIajor  Physics  majors  may  obtain  one  of  three  degrees, 
the  Bachelor  of  Arts  in  Physics,  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Physics,  or 
the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Applied  Physics. 

The  first-year  program  for  all  Physics  majors  includes  a  three-quarter 
physics  sequence  common  to  all  science  and  mathematics  majors,  and 
a  three-quarter  calculus  sequence.  The  remaining  courses  in  each  quar- 
ter of  the  freshman  year  can  be  chosen  from  a  wide  range  of  electives, 
but  generally  students  are  advised  to  meet  some  of  the  core  curnculum 
requirements  and  perhaps  to  learn  to  use  the  computer. 

Beyond  the  basic  first  year  survey  courses  in  physics  and  mathemat- 
ics, B.A.  students  are  required  to  pass  the  two  second-year  intermediate 
physics  courses,  three  upper-division  lecture  courses,  three  upper- 
division  laboratory  courses,  as  well  as  one  upper-division  mathematics 
elective.  In  addition,  the  College  requirements  must  also  be  satisfied. 
This  program  is  extremely  flexible  and  allows  the  B.A.  Physics  major  to 
pursue  other  interests  in  depth. 

Candidates  for  either  of  the  B.S.  Physics  degrees  must  complete  the 
two  intermediate  physics  courses,  the  second  year  of  the  calculus  se- 
quence, and  a  year  of  differential  equations.  In  addition,  the  B.S.  candi- 
dates must  satisfy  the  appropriate  college  requirements. 


56  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

Candidates  for  the  B.S.  in  Physics  must  also  complete  seven  upper- 
division  physics  lecture  courses,  three  upper-division  physics  laboratory 
courses,  and  five  additional  technical  electives  (courses  from  the  sci- 
ences, mathematics,  or  engineering  departments).  The  B.S.  in  Physics 
program  is  most  appropriate  for  those  students  who  wish  to  pursue 
graduate  study  in  physics. 

In  addition  to  the  common  intermediate  level  courses  described 
above,  candidates  for  the  B.S.  in  Applied  Physics  degree  must  complete 
three  upper-division  physics  lecture  courses,  five  upper-division  physics 
laboratory  courses,  three  computer  science  courses,  and  four  additional 
technical  electives.  The  B.S.  in  Applied  Physics  program  is  most  appro- 
priate for  those  students  who  expect  to  proceed  directly  to  work  after 
the  B.S.  degree,  or  for  those  who  expect  to  go  to  graduate  school  in 
related  fields. 

The  upper-division  lecture  courses  offered  by  the  Department  include 
Mechanics,  Wave  Motion  and  Optics,  Thermodynamics,  Electromag- 
netic Theory,  Quantum  Mechanics,  Mathematical  Physics,  Nuclear 
Physics,  Solid  State  Physics,  Plasma  Physics,  and  Astrophysics.  The 
upper-division  laboratories  include  Wave  Motion,  two  quarters  of  Elec- 
tronics, a  laboratory  devoted  to  microcomputer  programming  and  inter- 
facing, and  a  special  project  laboratory  in  which  the  student  designs 
and  carries  out  a  complete  project  involving  either  some  aspect  of  in- 
strumentation or  some  aspect  of  computational  physics.  The  courses 
are  all  taught  by  active  researchers  in  physics  who  have  a  strong  com- 
mitment to  teaching.  The  upper-division  courses  are  generally  small  (ten 
to  fifteen  students). 

There  are  regular  lectures  and  colloquia  in  the  Department,  many  of 
which  may  be  of  interest  to  undergraduate  students.  In  addition,  there 
are  reading  courses  on  special  topics  in  physics. 

Students  interested  in  majoring  in  Physics  should  consult  with  one  of 
the  Department  advisers  as  early  as  possible  in  their  college  careers  to 
plan  their  programs. 

Description  of  the  Minors  The  Physics  Department  offers  two  minor 
programs  for  students  majoring  in  other  fields:  the  Physics  Minor  and 
the  Instrumentation  for  Science  Minor. 

The  Physics  Minor  program  is  designed  to  accommodate  a  wide  va- 
riety of  interests  while  still  providing  a  study  of  the  fundamentals.  To  fulfill 
the  requirements  of  this  minor,  a  student  must  take  five  intermediate 
and/or  advanced  courses  after  completing  introductory  physics. 

The  Instrumentation  for  Science  Minor  is  designed  to  provide  a  stu- 
dent with  experience  in  the  use  of  common  laboratory  instruments,  the 
taking  and  the  analysis  of  data,  and  elementary  skills  in  electronics.  A 
major  goal  of  the  minor  is  to  prepare  the  student  to  design  and  construct 
relatively  small  scale  special  purpose  measurement  instrumentation.  To 
fulfill  the  requirements  of  the  minor  a  student  must  take  four  intermediate 
and/or  advanced  laboratory  courses  after  completing  introductory 
physics. 

Further  information  on  the  Minor  Programs  may  be  obtained  from  the 
Physics  Department  Office,  Room  112,  Dana  Research  Center.

Honors  Program  and 
Undergraduate  Research 

Students  invited  into  the  Honors  Program  may  take  graduate  courses, 
reading  courses,  and  special  topics  courses,  by  petition,  in  the  various 
research  fields  of  the  Department.  Such  work  occasionally  leads  to  pre- 
sentation of  papers  at  professional  meetings  and  to  publication  in 
professional  journals. 

Facilities  and  Research 

The  Physics  Department  is  housed  in  the  Dana  Research  Center,  a 
modern,  air-conditioned  building  which  includes  its  own  library,  research 
laboratories.  Department  and  student  machine  shops,  electronics  shop, 
conference  and  seminar  rooms,  and  faculty  and  graduate  and  under- 
graduate student  offices.  The  Department  has  its  own  computer  facility, 
housing  a  VAX  11/750  computer,  as  well  as.PDP  11/24  and  LSI  11/23 
computers  dedicated  to  physics  research  programs.  In  addition,  a  De- 
partmental terminal  cluster  providing  access  to  three  VAX  11/780  units 
of  the  University  Computer  Center  is  located  in  the  Dana  Center. 

In  addition  to  the  research  facilities  on  campus,  faculty  and  graduate 
students  currently  pursue  their  research  at  a  variety  of  off-campus  na- 
tional and  international  facilities:  astrophysics  experiments  at  the  NASA 
Infrared  Telescope  Facility,  Mauna  Kea,  Hawaii,  at  Kitt  Peak  National 
Observatory,  Tucson,  Arizona,  and  at  NRAO  Very  Large  Array,  Socorro, 
New  Mexico;  high-energy  physics  experiments  at  the  Stanford  Linear 
Accelerator  Center  (SLAC),  Palo  Alto,  California,  at  CERN,  Geneva,  Swit- 
zerland, and  at  the  Fermi  National  Accelerator  Laboratory  (Fermilab), 
Batavia,  Illinois;  high-magnetic  field  experiments  at  the  National  Magnet 
Laboratory,  Cambridge,  Massachusetts;  inelastic  neutron  scattering  ex- 
periments at  the  Brookhaven  National  Laboratory,  New  York,  at  the  Oak 
Ridge  National  Laboratory,  Oak  Ridge,  Tennessee  and  at  the  Laue- 
Langevin  Institute,  Grenoble,  France. 

The  Department's  full-time  faculty  are  involved  in  a  broad  spectrum  of 
front-line  experimental  and  theoretical  programs  in  astrophysics,  atomic, 
and  molecular  physics,  biophysics,  elementary  particle  physics,  and 
solid  state  and  low  temperature  physics.  A  full  deschption  of  these  pro- 
grams may  be  obtained  upon  request  to  the  Chairman  of  the  Depart- 
ment.

Social  Sciences 

The  Social  Sciences  are  disciplines  involving  the  study  of  society  as 
such,  as  well  as  the  social  behavior  of  individuals  and  groups.  In  con- 
trast to  the  approach  used  in  the  Humanities,  the  Social  Sciences  tend 
to  focus  on  objective  aspects  of  societies.  Measurement  and  testing, 
and  the  statistical  treatment  of  data,  play  a  larger  role  in  the  Social 
Sciences. 

On  the  other  hand,  as  mentioned  before,  this  distinction  is  helpful  only 
if  used  with  caution.  In  the  final  analysis,  human  beings  and  human 
institutions  cannot  be  studied  without  due  attention  to  both  subjective 
and  objective  factors.  For  this  reason,  the  dividing  line  between  Human- 
ities and  Social  Sciences  cannot  be  drawn  sharply. 

In  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  the  major  disciplines  comprising 
the  Social  Sciences  are  as  follows: 

African-American  Studies     page  59 
Economics    page  61 
History    page  63 
Human  Services*     page  65 
Linguistics    page  67 
Political  Science    page  70 
Psychology    page  72 
Sociology/Anthropology    page  75 


*  The  Human  Services  major  is  offered  jointly  by  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 
and  the  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human  Development  Professions.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  African-American  Studies  at  Northeastern  University  offers  an 
interdisciplinary  study  of  the  black  experience  with  two  central  pur- 
poses: (1)  to  provide  academically  rigorous  and  exciting  courses  for  all 
students  interested  in  the  field;  and  (2)  to  contribute  to  the  students' 
ability  to  develop  analytical  skills  and  to  apply  this  learning,  whatever 
their  disciplines  or  career  objectives. 

By  presenting  fresh  perspectives  while  remaining  firmly  grounded  in 
traditional  academic  standards,  the  courses  in  African-American  Studies 
may  aid  the  student  to  develop  the  skill  of  critical  thinking,  provide  the 
opportunity  to  gain  a  meaningful,  liberal  arts  education,  and  help  to  form 
a  strong  basis  for  professional  or  graduate  work. 

Students  from  other  disciplines  should  find  that  the  courses  in  African- 
Amencan  Studies  are  designed  to  complement  and  enrich  their  chosen 
concentrations  or  majors. 

Description  of  the  Major  A  major  in  African-American  studies  offers 
students  the  opportunity  to  prepare  themselves  for  a  wide  range  of 
professions  calling  for  an  understanding  of  intergroup  relations  and  the 
minority  experience.  Students  may  go  on  to  graduate  study  in  such 
areas  as  social  work,  sociology,  education,  law,  business,  history,  or  the 
humanities. 

A  View  of  the  l\/lajor  Students  majoring  in  African-American  Studies 
may  earn  either  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  (B.A.)  or  Bachelor  of  Science  (B.S.) 
degree.  All  majors  are  required  to  take  the  following  set  of  courses: 

—  Economic  Issues  in  Minority  Communities 

—  Directed  Study  for  Senior  Thesis 

—  Africa  Today 

—  African-American  Literature  I 

—  Contemporary  Issues  in  Black  Society 

—  Black  Psychological  Identity 

—  African-American  History  I 

—  Research  Seminar 

—  Survey  of  Black  Political  Movements 

—  Race  Relations  in  America 

Faculty  advisers  work  with  students  to  help  them  select  electives  within 
their  chosen  areas  of  concentration  to  fulfill  their  distnbution  and  lan- 
guage requirements  for  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts,  or  career  pack- 
age programs  for  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Science.

Description  of  the  IVIinor  A  minor  in  African-American  Studies  is  de- 
signed to  meet  the  needs  of  students  who  major  in  other  areas  but  have 
a  special  interest  in  African-American  Studies.  To  qualify  for  a  minor  in 
African-American  Studies,  a  student  must  earn  twenty-eight  quarter 
hours  in  the  field,  twelve  of  which  are  from  the  set  of  courses  required  of 
majors.  The  remaining  courses  will  be  a  "concentration  cluster"  that  is 
arranged  in  consultation  with  the  student's  faculty  adviser. 

Concentration  Clusters  A  concentration  cluster  is  comprised  of  a  set 
of  four  courses  which  focus  on  a  given  aspect  of  African-American  Stud- 
ies. A  cluster  might  focus  on  sociology-psychology,  history,  humanities, 
human  services,  research,  or  other  areas  related  to  the  student's  edu- 
cational or  career  needs.  Concentration  clusters  are  arranged  in  con- 
sultation between  the  student  and  a  faculty  adviser.

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  The  Economics  program  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  ob- 
tain a  better  understanding  of  how  our  economy  and  other  economies 
function,  to  prepare  themselves  for  graduate  study  in  economics,  and  to 
develop  specialties  that  may  qualify  them  to  work  as  economists. 

Description  of  the  Major  Economics  is  the  study  of  ways  in  which 
scarce  resources,  including  human  resources,  are  deployed  to  satisfy 
the  material  wants  of  individuals  and  society.  Economists  analyze  the 
factors  that  determine  the  success  or  failure  of  this  process. 

Macroeconomics,  concerned  with  the  overall  economy,  deals  with 
such  problems  as  inflation,  unemployment,  growth  and  instability,  and 
government  monetary,  fiscal,  and  regulatory  policies.  Microeconomics 
is  concerned  with  the  economic  behavior  of  individuals,  households, 
firms,  and  industries.  It  assesses  the  economic  effects  of  racism,  sexism, 
pollution,  and  environmental  damage  and  analyzes  the  economic  as- 
pects of  natural  resources,  poverty,  health,  income  distribution,  trade 
unions,  and  collective  bargaining. 

Graduates  may  be  employed  by  businesses  in  such  activities  as  in- 
dustrial relations,  planning  and  forecasting,  determining  plant  locations, 
and  making  financial  studies.  They  may  become  expert  in  analyzing 
consumer  demand  and  developing  and  marketing  new  products.  They 
may  conduct  research,  teach,  or  provide  specialized  consulting  ser- 
vices. In  addition,  federal,  state,  local  governments,  and  trade  unions 
are  important  sources  of  jobs  for  economists. 


62  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

A  baccalaureate  economics  degree,  or  graduation  with  a  number  of 
advanced  economics  courses,  offers  students  an  excellent  opportunity 
to  prepare  themselves  for  graduate  programs  in  economics  as  well  as 
for  entry  into  schools  of  law  and  business. 

A  View  of  the  Major  There  is  considerable  flexibility  in  the  Economics 
program  to  enable  students  to  concentrate  in  areas  of  personal  interest. 
A  student  expecting  to  major  in  the  field  should  take  the  problem- 
oriented  Principles  of  Economics  in  the  freshman  or  sophomore  year  to 
discover  the  range  of  insights  economics  can  offer  in  analyzing  and 
solving  a  variety  of  problems.  Upper-division  courses  apply  theory  to  an 
in-depth  study  of  a  specific  area  of  the  field. 

Other  courses  for  the  major  include  two  quarters  each  of  fundamentals 
of  mathematics,  economic  statistics,  and  economic  theory.  In  addition, 
the  Department  offers  electives  in  all  areas  of  economics,  honors 
courses,  reading  courses,  and  a  senior  seminar. 

The  courses  listed  above  are  required  for  either  the  Bachelor  of  Arts 
or  Bachelor  of  Science  degree.  However,  the  B.A.  follows  the  liberal  arts 
tradition  in  its  distribution  and  language  requirements — the  Department 
of  Economics  requires  other  social  science  courses  as  well,  plus  six 
economics  electives.  The  B.S.  is  a  professional  degree.  In  addition  to 
social  science  electives,  it  requires  ten  economics  electives  and  one 
course  in  quantitative  methods. 

The  Department  courses  offer  training  in  economic  theory,  money  and 
banking,  public  finance,  international  trade,  growth  and  development, 
industrial  organization,  comparative  economic  systems,  economic  his- 
tory, environmental  economics,  economics  of  crime,  urban  problems, 
labor  markets,  collective  bargaining,  human  resources,  poverty  and  dis- 
crimination, and  medical  economics.  In  addition,  tool  courses,  such  as 
statistics,  mathematical  economics,  econometrics,  and  quantitative 
methods  are  available.  Other  electives  and  reading  courses  permit  stu- 
dents to  study  an  area  in-depth. 

Description  of  the  Minor  The  Department  also  offers  a  minor  consist- 
ing of  four  required  courses  and  four  electives,  which  are  selected  in 
consultation  with  a  faculty  adviser.  Any  course  taken  outside  the  Depart- 
ment of  Economics  to  satisfy  these  minor  elective  requirements  must  be 
approved  by  a  faculty  adviser  in  the  Department.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  History's  concern  with  the  diverse  and  complex  past  of  humanity 
provides  an  excellent  opportunity  for  the  development  of  greater  under- 
standing and  appreciation  of  today's  culture  and  civilization.  Tradition- 
ally, history  has  been  a  major  of  great  appeal  to  men  and  women 
desiring  a  broad  base  before  they  embark  on  careers  in  business,  law, 
journalism,  and  government. 

Other  majors  know  that  they  want  to  work  more  directly  in  history. 
Some  want  to  teach  in  public  schools.  They  may  elect  education  courses 
that  may  lead  to  state  certification.  (Those  desiring  jobs  in  private  sec- 
ondary schools  need  not  be  certified  by  state  authorities.)  Teaching 
positions  in  colleges  and  universities  require  master's,  and  increasingly 
doctor's,  degrees.  An  undergraduate  major  in  History  facilitates  en- 
trance to  graduate  programs  in  the  field.  Ordinarily,  college  and  univer- 
sity history  teachers  spend  part  of  their  time  in  research  and  writing. 

Not  all  professional  historians  teach  and  write.  Many  find  pleasure  and 
profit  working  in  public  archives,  private  historical  societies,  museums, 
and  restoration  projects.  The  careers  serve  not  only  other  professional 
historians  but  a  larger  public  as  well. 

Description  of  the  Major  For  majors  of  such  diverse  interests  and 
ambitions,  curricula  must  combine  sensible  structure  with  flexibility.  Ma- 
jors in  History  at  Northeastern  may  qualify  for  either  a  Bachelor  of  Arts 
or  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree.  Since  the  B.A.  requires  a  foreign 
language,  it  appeals  to  prospective  candidates  for  graduate  school 
where  reading  knowledge  of  foreign  languages  is  often  necessary;  the 
B.S.  is  designed  for  students  desiring  greater  specialization  in  history 
and  a  social  science  orientation. 

Candidates  for  both  degrees  are  required  to  take  the  surveys  in  West- 
ern Civilization  and  American  History,  and  The  Historian's  Craft,  which 
focuses  on  methods,  problems,  and  philosophies  of  historians.  A  later 
course.  Approaches  to  History,  requires  students  to  undertake  a  major 
historical  project.  Elective  courses  cover  the  political,  economic,  social, 
and  cultural  history  of  man  in  diverse  times  and  places. 


64  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

A  View  of  the  Major  To  ensure  a  broad  program  of  study,  the  College 
of  Arts  and  Sciences  requires  that  students  choose  courses  offered  by 
departments  outside  the  area  of  the  major. 

The  history  requirements  are  broken  into  groups:  Group  A  (Ancient, 
Medieval,  and  Early  Modern  Europe);  Group  B  (Modern  Europe);  Group 
C  (British  North  American  Colonies  and  the  United  States);  and  Group  D 
(Other  Areas  or  Regions).  A  minimum  of  two  courses  (eight  quarter 
hours)  must  be  elected  from  each  group. 

Majors  are  also  urged  to  avoid  overspecialization  at  the  undergradu- 
ate level.  Though  there  are  no  maximum  limits  on  the  amount  of  history 
that  may  be  taken,  the  Department  advises  broad  course  selection  as 
the  best  policy  for  its  majors.  All  majors  are  assigned  to  departmental 
advisers  v^ho  offer  counsel  about  the  program.  Students  are  urged  to 
seek  advice  about  history  electives,  about  other  electives,  and  about  the 
honors  program. 

All  qualified  History  majors  are  urged  to  consider  the  honors  program 
in  History.  Those  accepted  write  honors  theses  under  the  direction  of 
members  of  the  Department.  Students  ordinarily  register  the  honors 
courses  in  their  last  three  quarters  of  enrollment,  except  for  the  summer 
quarter  when  honors  courses  are  not  usually  offered. 

Description  of  the  Minor  Students  interested  in  a  minor  in  history 
should  consult  the  History  Department  for  information.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  This  major  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  prepare  themselves 
for  possible  careers  in  one  of  the  areas  broadly  defined  as  "human 
services."  The  program  is  interdisciplinary.  The  Human  Services  curric- 
ulum allows  students  the  opportunity  to  obtain  fundamental  attitudes, 
knowledge,  and  skills  that  may  lead  to  meaningful  careers  in  the  helping 
professions  as  well  as  to  graduate  education  in  a  variety  of  fields. 

Students  who  major  in  Human  Services  through  the  College  of  Arts 
and  Sciences  may  prepare  themselves  to  perform  a  variety  of  functions 
in  public  and  private  agencies.  Through  course  work,  two  quarters  of 
fieldwork  experience,  and  possible  co-op  jobs,  students  have  the  op- 
portunity to  explore  such  areas  as  casework  services  in  social  service 
and  welfare  agencies;  therapeutic  treatment  programs  in  mental  health 
settings;  supportive  counseling  in  community  health  centers;  rehabilita- 
tion counseling  services;  sheltered  workshops;  parole  counseling;  court 
liaison  in  programs  for  delinquent  youth;  staff  work  in  halfway  houses, 
penal  institutions,  and  drug  treatment  centers;  supportive  counseling  for 
the  mentally  retarded;  community  organizing;  services  for  the  aging; 
administration  in  human  services  agencies;  and  social  program  re- 
search and  evaluation. 

Description  of  the  IVIajor  The  Human  Services  program  offers  a  con- 
tinuing advisory  system  to  help  students  make  the  best  use  of  their  early 
course  selections  and  to  guide  them  to  appropriate  upper-level  courses. 
College  Requirements.  Degree  requirements  differ  for  each  partici- 
pating college.  Refer  to  pages  94  to  95  for  requirements  in  the  College 
of  Arts  and  Sciences  and  to  page  98  for  requirements  in  the  Boston- 
Bouve  College  of  Human  Development  Professions.  Students  in  Arts  and 
Sciences  may  take  a  five-year  Cooperative  Education  Program  or  a  four- 
year  full-time  program. 
There  are  five  basic  aspects  to  the  program  as  follows: 

1 .  Prerequisite  Courses.  Prescribed  courses  in  sociology,  psychol- 
ogy, government,  economics,  and  human  services  are  required, 
for  a  total  of  six  courses. 

2.  Core  Courses.  Nine  courses  in  such  areas  as  statistics,  research 
methods,  group  process,  organizations,  personality,  intervention 
strategies,  and  a  senior  seminar  are  required. 


66  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

3.  Specified  Electives.  Three  courses  in  the  areas  of  African- 
American  Studies,  special  education,  and/or  poverty  must  be  se- 
lected from  a  list  of  recommended  options. 

4.  Specialization.  Each  student  must  take  a  five-course  specializa- 
tion developed  in  conjunction  with  an  adviser.  Typically,  these 
specializations  are  in  one  of  three  areas:  administrative,  commu- 
nity, and  clinical.  Specific  course  choices  are  designed  to  com- 
plement the  individual's  interests  and  goals.  "Deaf  Studies"  and 
other  structured  specializations  are  being  developed. 

5.  Fieldwork.  Human  Services  students  are  required  to  fulfill  two 
fieldwork  placements  during  the  last  two  years  of  their  program. 
Each  placement  consists  of  150  hours  on  site.  The  type  of  place- 
ment varies  according  to  the  student's  interest.  In  the  past,  stu- 
dents have  found  placements  in  community  programs,  nursing 
homes,  vocational  workshops,  state  and  federal  agencies,  and 
recreational  facilities.  These  experiences  are  supervised  by  Uni- 
versity staff  to  maximize  the  student's  learning  opportunity. 

A  View  of  the  Major  The  Human  Services  major  offers  students  the 
opportunity  to  obtain  useful  values  and  basic  knowledge  relating  to  var- 
ious human  services  fields.  Courses  introducing  some  basic  skills  can 
help  them  to  understand  and  work  with  a  variety  of  helping  services. 

Human  Services  students  at  Northeastern  have  been  very  active  in 
their  major  and  helpful  to  each  other.  The  Human  Services  Student  Or- 
ganization combines  social  and  career-related  activities,  which  in  the 
past  have  included  open  houses,  day-long  conferences,  and  weekend 
retreats.  A  quarterly  Human  Services  Newsletter  is  published  by  stu- 
dents and  faculty. 

For  specific  details  on  degree  requirements,  students  should  consult 
their  Human  Services  advisers  or  the  Program  Coordinator  in  125 
Holmes  Hall,  437-2624.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Linguistics  is  the  science  of  language  and  is  concerned  with 
such  issues  as  how  children  learn  to  speak,  how  we  understand  and 
produce  language,  how  language  barriers  keep  people  apart  and  how 
language  ties  bring  them  together,  how  language  is  structured  and  how 
it  is  represented  in  the  brain,  why  some  people  are  better  at  acquiring  a 
second  language  than  others,  and  how  sign  languages  are  different 
from  spoken  languages.  Combined  with  other  appropriate  courses,  a 
major  in  linguistics  may  be  a  useful  first  step  in  becoming,  for  instance, 
a  linguist,  an  expert  on  child  language,  a  teacher  of  a  foreign  language 
or  of  English  as  a  second  language,  an  interpreter,  or  even  an  expert  in 
artificial  intelligence.  But  above  all,  specializing  in  linguistics  allows  the 
student  an  opportunity  to  have  an  insight  into  language  itself — a  highly 
complex  aspect  of  our  everyday  life  that  we  take  for  granted  far  too 
readily. 

Description  of  the  IVIajor  The  major  in  linguistics  is  an  interdepart- 
mental enterprise.  Five  departments  (English,  Modern  Languages, 
Philosophy  and  Religion,  Psychology,  and  Sociology/Anthropology)  col- 
laborate to  offer  a  comprehensive  program  that  makes  use  of  the  vast 
resources  and  talent  that  exist  at  Northeastern  University  in  the  field  of 
linguistics.  The  major  reflects  the  current  research  of  such  diverse  peo- 
ple as  linguists,  sociologists,  psychologists,  language  educators,  and 
teachers  of  second  languages.  It  is  administered  by  a  coordinator  who 
is  a  member  of  the  Psychology  Department. 

The  major  offers  students  a  systematic  introduction  to  modern  linguis- 
tics and  is  broad  enough  to  meet  the  needs  of  students  interested  in: 

—  general  linguistics  (phonetics  and  phonology,  semantics,  syntax,  bi- 
lingualism,  historical  linguistics,  philosophy  of  language,  language 
and  culture,  Amencan  Sign  Language); 


68  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

—  experimental  linguistics  (language  and  cognition,  child  language, 
neurolinguistics,  psycholinguistics);  and 

—  linguistics  applied  to  language-related  work  (language  teaching,  lan- 
guage testing,  language  teaching  materials,  interpreting,  literary 
analysis). 

A  View  of  the  Major  Students  enrolled  in  the  major  can  obtain  either  a 
Bachelor  of  Arts  or  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree.  These  two  degrees 
are  in  every  way  identical  except  that  the  second  language  requirement 
can  be  met  with  American  Sign  Language  in  the  B.S.  degree  but  not  in 
the  B.A.  degree. 

Besides  the  general  college  requirements,  the  requirements  of  the 
major  include  six  basic  courses  from  the  main  areas  of  linguistics;  gen- 
eral linguistics,  psycholinguistics,  sociolinguistics,  and  symbolic  logic. 
Students  also  take  five  additional  courses  in  the  area  of  their  choice. 
These  courses  include,  among  others,  Bilingualism,  Child  Language, 
Philosophy  of  Language,  Linguistics  of  American  Sign  Language,  Neu- 
rolinguistics, Transformational  Grammar,  Body  Language,  Animal  Com- 
munication, Introduction  to  Semantics,  and  Applied  Linguistics. 

All  students  also  take  a  laboratory  course  in  which  they  are  introduced 
to  language  research  in  a  laboratory  environment.  Two  advanced  semi- 
nars are  required,  as  is  a  practicum  that  can  take  the  form  of  fieldwork, 
interpreting,  language  teaching,  or  a  directed  study.  The  practicum  is 
supervised  by  a  faculty  member  who  advises  the  student  and  monitors 
his/her  progress.  Advanced  knowledge  of  a  second  language — spoken 
or  sign — is  required,  by  either  taking  appropriate  courses  or  demonstrat- 
ing proficiency  in  that  language. 

Combined  with  other  appropnate  courses,  the  program  is  suitable  for 
those  students  interested  in  teaching  American  Sign  Language.  They 
may  wish  to  concentrate  on  the  applied  linguistics  of  sign  language 
while  working  on  their  bachelor's  degree.  This  concentration  enables 
students  to  acquire  the  background  and  the  skills  necessary  to  become 
professional  teachers  of  sign  language,  and  helps  them  prepare  for  the 
sign  language  instructor  certification. 

Throughout  the  course  of  study,  students  meet  regularly  with  an  ad- 
viser who  helps  them  plan  their  course  work  and  advises  them  on  all 
aspects  of  the  major. 

Research  The  students  enrolled  in  a  directed-study  course  and  in  the 
laboratory  course  will  take  advantage  of  the  Psychology  Department's 
four  language  laboratories,  which  contain  audio  and  video  recording 
facilities  and  computers  for  stimulus  preparation,  data  gathering,  and 
statistical  analysis.  They  will  work  with  graduate  students,  research  as- 
sistants, and  faculty  on  ongoing  projects  related  to  the  perception  and 
production  of  spoken  and  sign  languages. 

A  brochure  describing  the  linguistics  major,  as  well  as  additional  in- 
formation, can  be  obtained  from  Professor  F.  Grosjean,  Department  of 
Psychology,  282  Nightingale  Hall. 

Description  of  the  Minor  In  addition  to  the  major,  the  linguistics  pro- 
gram offers  students  specializing  in  other  disciplines  a  minor  in  linguis- 
tics. This  minor  is  designed  to  give  students  the  opportunity  to  broaden 
their  field  of  study  and  to  enhance  their  career  opportunities.  The  minor 


Linguistics  /  69 


consists  of  six  courses,  two  required  courses  with  the  remainder  se- 
lected from  a  large  set  of  courses  offered  by  the  program.  Students 
minoring  in  linguistics  are  assigned  a  faculty  adviser  to  help  them  select 
the  courses  that  best  suit  their  needs.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Political  science  is  concerned  with  the  study  of  political  institu- 
tions, the  social  and  economic  forces  that  shape  them,  the  cultural  con- 
text within  which  they  operate,  and  human  behavior  in  political  matters. 
The  Department  of  Political  Science  at  Northeastern  University  has 
three  objectives;  (1)  to  offer  students  the  opportunity  to  obtain  an  edu- 
cation within  the  framework  of  the  best  liberal  arts  tradition;  (2)  to  help 
heighten  students'  awareness  of  political  forces  in  the  environment  and 
to  sharpen  their  perception  of  their  role  as  citizens  in  a  democratic 
society;  and  (3)  to  provide  the  opportunity  for  acquiring  a  solid  academic 
foundation  to  those  who  elect  political  science,  law,  or  public  administra- 
tion as  a  professional  career  or  who  choose  a  career  for  which  a  political 
science  background  is  relevant  or  helpful. 

Description  of  the  Major  The  study  of  political  science  can  be  the 
gateway  to  a  liberal  education  with  its  benefits  of  broadened  interests, 
sharpened  sensibilities,  and  a  quickened  sense  of  civic  responsibility.  If 
you  have  a  special  interest  in  public  affairs,  studies  in  this  field  can  help 
you  prepare  for  government  service,  the  study  of  law,  the  teaching  of 
government  and  related  subjects,  or  a  career  in  politics  or  public  man- 
agement. 

For  the  student  who  wishes  to  pursue  professional  studies  at  the  grad- 
uate level,  concentration  in  Political  Science  and/or  Public  Administra- 
tion may  help  lead  to  many  attractive  opportunities.  As  in  many  fields, 
competition  for  positions  is  keen,  so  the  student's  success  will  depend 
upon  such  factors  as  academic  record,  experience,  and  personal  initia- 
tive. There  are  some  career  opportunities  in  public  management  at  the 
federal,  state,  and  local  levels  of  government,  while  positions  in  research 
are  often  available  in  government  and  university  research  bureaus. 
Teaching  offers  further  career  possibilities,  as  do  specialized  agencies 
in  international  bodies  like  the  United  Nations,  which  call  for  the  skills  of 
the  political  scientist.  Individuals  with  specialized  training  in  political 
science  can  compete  for  positions  in  less  obvious  areas;  in  the  public- 
service  programming  of  educational  and  commercial  television,  in  jour- 
nalism, in  legislative  and  lobbying  work,  in  public  relations  activities  with 
private  associations,  and  in  profit  and  non-profit  corporations. 


Political  Science/ 71 

A  View  of  the  Major  Students  may  select  either  the  Bachelor  of  Arts 
or  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  program.  Students  in  the  B.A.  pro- 
gram have  to  meet  foreign  language  and  other  requirements  of  the 
College.  'Both  degree  programs  (B.A.  and  B.S.)  require  four  quarter 
hours  in  each  of  the  following:  Introduction  to  Political  Science,  Introduc- 
tion to  American  Government,  Introduction  to  Foreign  Governments,  In- 
troduction to  International  Relations,  Public  Administration,  and  Political 
Theory,  as  well  as  twenty-four  to  twenty-eight  quarter  hours  of  electives 
in  political  science  and  six  electives  (twenty-four  quarter  hours)  in  the 
social  sciences,  with  at  least  one  course  in  at  least  three  of  the  following: 
African-American  studies,  anthropology,  economics,  history,  psychol- 
ogy, or  sociology.  The  B.S.  student  is  required  to  take  eight  hours  of 
research  methods.  Courses  in  basic  math,  and  FORTRAN  and  FORGO 
are  also  recommended  for  B.S.  students. 

Public  Administration 

The  Bachelor  of  Science  program  with  a  concentration  in  Public  Admin- 
istration provides  a  third  option  for  the  student.  This  program  requires 
the  completion  of  forty  hours  of  such  courses  as  Introductory  Political 
Science,  American  Government,  Public  Adminstration,  Policy  Analysis,

Professional  Preparation 

Alms  Modern  psychology  may  be  broadly  defined  as  a  science  that 
examines  what  people  and  other  organisms  do  as  well  as  how  and  why 
they  behave  as  they  do.  Psychology  is  also  an  interdisciplinary  science 
that  depends  heavily  on  the  methods  and  much  of  the  knowledge  de- 
rived from  the  other  sciences.  With  these  considerations  in  mind,  the 
undergraduate  curriculum  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  develop  a 
sound  foundation  in  the  scientific  underpinnings  of  modern  psychology 
to  prepare  them  for  a  diversity  of  careers  in  teaching,  research,  public 
service,  and  professional  practice. 

Description  of  the  Major  Our  courses  offer  students  the  opportunity 
for  preparation  to  enter  a  variety  of  work  settings  in  which  in-service 
specialty  training  is  ordinarily  offered  (e.g.,  community  mental  health 
centers,  vocational  rehabilitation  offices,  and  correctional  programs)  or 
to  enter  advanced  training  in  such  graduate  programs  as  psychology, 
life  science,  or  any  of  the  health  professions  and  medical  specialties. 

The  Psychology  curriculum  explores  many  topics,  such  as  the  function 
of  the  brain  in  determining  behavior;  how  we  see,  hear,  and  learn;  what 
behavioral  science  can  offer  in  the  problem  areas  of  mental  retardation, 
personality  problems,  infancy,  and  old  age;  and  how  we  might  suggest 
social  changes  based  on  laboratory  data  to  increase  men's  and  wom- 
en's accomplishments  and  satisfactions  in  the  modern  world.  In  addition 
the  curriculum  offers  opportunities  for  laboratory  practice  and  experi- 
mentation, field  experiences  in  behavior  technology,  and  small-group 
seminars  to  encourage  critical  and  creative  evaluation  of  psychology's 
accomplishments  and  its  future. 

A  View  of  the  Major  The  Department  offers  both  a  Bachelor  of  Arts 
and  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree.  The  B.S.  degree  is  usually  recom- 
mended for  students  with  a  strong  scientific  or  professional  interest  who 
ultimately  may  consider  applying  to  graduate  schools  in  psychology  or 


Psychology  /  73 

environmental  science.  In  addition,  the  Departnnent  offers  a  special  B.S. 
program  for  Psychology  majors  who  wish  to  prepare  for  application  to 
health  professions  schools.  Since  modern  psychology  is  multidiscipli- 
nary,  the  B.A.  and  B.S.  programs  both  include  distribution  requirements 
in  allied  sciences  to  fulfill  the  need  for  wide  exposure  to  varying  tech- 
niques of  scientific  practice  and  interpretation. 

With  the  science  courses  and  elementary  psychology  courses  as 
foundations,  students  in  the  B.A.  and  B.S.  programs  may  pursue  a  gen- 
eral course  of  study  that  explores  four  major  areas  of  psychology;  Lan- 
guage and  Cognition,  Learning  Motivation  and  Behavioral  Analysis, 
Personality  and  Social  Psychology,  or  Sensory  and  Neuropsychology. 
Alternately,  students  may  choose  to  concentrate  in  only  one  of  these 
areas.  The  curricula  for  the  areas  of  concentration  have  been  structured 
so  that  the  student  often  takes  courses  not  only  in  psychology,  but  also 
in  related  disciplines.  For  example,  a  student  concentrating  in  Person- 
ality and  Social  Psychology  takes  courses  in  sociology,  anthropology, 
and  speech/drama.  The  student's  final  choice  of  concentration  should 
be  made  only  after  personal  consultation  with  his  or  her  Psychology 
Department  adviser. 

Within  each  of  the  four  concentrations,  the  student  is  expected  to 
progress  through  a  sequence  of  specialty  courses,  laboratory  courses, 
and  a  seminar.  The  student  is  thus  afforded  the  opportunity  to  explore  a 
given  area  of  psychology  in  depth,  as  well  as  to  acquire  an  overview  of 
the  broader  issues  in  psychology.  Furthermore,  all  B.S.  students  and 
qualified  B.A.  students  participate  in  the  Department's  Directed  Studies 
Program,  in  which,  under  the  direction  of  a  faculty  member,  they  engage 
in  research  projects  in  various  laboratories  in  the  Department.  In  this 
way,  classroom  learning  is  complemented  by  laboratory  research,  where 
the  student  may  learn  by  doing. 

Description  of  the  l\/linor  Each  student  is  required  to  take  ten  psy- 
chology courses,  including  the  introductory  psychology  sequence,  in- 
termediate specialty  courses,  and  at  least  one  laboratory  course.  The 
minor  program  itself  is  quite  flexible,  designed  for  students  with  a  broad 
range  of  interests  and  career  goals.  Students  may  choose  either  to 
distribute  the  ten  psychology  courses  over  a  broad  range  of  areas  or  to 
focus  on  one  of  the  four  areas  corresponding  to  the  major  concentra- 
tions: Language  and  Cognition,  Learning  Motivation  and  Behaviorial 
Analysis,  Personality  and  Social  Psychology,  and  Sensory  and  Neuro- 
psychology. Students  are  assigned  faculty  advisers  in  the  Department 
to  help  them  select  the  minor  program  that  best  suits  their  needs. 

Topics  in  Psychology 
Series  (TIPS) 

As  well  as  offering  courses  designed  primarily  for  psychology  majors, 
the  Department  also  offers  a  variety  of  courses  without  prerequisites  that 
are  addressed  to  specific  topics  of  broad  current  interest.  Examples 
include  Psychological  Testing,  Marriage  and  the  Family,  Body  Lan- 
guage, Sexual  Behavior,  Psychology  and  the  Law,  Animal  Communica- 
tion, Man  in  Isolation,  and  Memory  and  Remembering.

Research  Laboratories 


The  student  who  enrolls  in  laboratory  courses  and  directed-study 
courses  will  take  advantage  of  the  Department's  resources  for  research, 
which  include:  (a)  in  the  field  of  learning,  behavior  laboratories  for  re- 
search with  humans,  rats,  and  pigeons;  and,  in  collaboration  with  the 
Walter  E.  Fernald  State  School,  an  instructional  setting  for  research  and 
training  in  behavior  modification  with  retarded  children  and  adults;  (b)  in 
neuropsychology  and  ethology,  primate  and  rodent  surgeries  in  neu- 
roanatomical  and  histological  laboratories,  with  apparatus  for  stimulating 
and  recording  activities  of  the  brain;  (c)  in  the  psychology  of  vision  and 
hearing,  specialized  enclosures  and  equipment  for  presenting  visual 
and  auditory  stimuli  and  for  measuring  responses  of  the  eye  and  the  ear, 
including  on-line  computers;  (d)  in  language  and  cognition,  audio  and 
video  recording  facilities  and  a  computer  for  control  of  stimulus  and 
response  variables;  and  (e)  in  the  field  of  personality,  darkrooms,  tach- 
istoscopes,  and  an  eye-movement  camera.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  disciplines  of  sociology  and  anthropology  apply  a  critical 
perspective  to  the  study  of  social  arrangements  in  which  human  beings 
live  and  die.  Systematic  research  methods  and  theory  are  brought  to 
bear  on  how  societies  function  and  change,  and  on  how  individuals, 
groups,  and  institutions  interact.  Applications  are  made  to  such  areas 
as  social  policy,  criminology,  medical  and  mental  health  issues,  and 
business  issues. 

Description  of  the  Major  A  major  in  this  Department  offers  back- 
ground preparation  and  preprofessional  training  for  a  wide  spectrum  of 
careers  in  public  or  private  service  and  research.  Students  may  wish  to 
pursue  graduate  study  in  sociology,  anthropology,  or  social  psychology. 
For  those  pursuing  graduate,  professional  training  (e.g.  law,  social  work, 
and  public  administration),  sociology  and  anthropology  also  provide  a 
good  background. 

Students  may  concentrate  in  sociology  or  anthropology  or  both.  Stu- 
dents who  wish  to  study  both  must  design  their  own  programs,  with  the 
help  of  an  adviser.  Those  enrolled  in  premedical,  prelegal,  paramedical, 
or  a  variety  of  other  preprofessional  programs  should  find  that  sociology 
and  anthropology  courses  can  offer  a  useful  background. 

A  View  of  the  IVIajor  Majors  may  follow  either  a  four-year  full-time 
program  or  a  five-year  cooperative  course  of  study.  Cooperative  work 
assignments  vary  from  placement  in  mental  hospitals  and  social  agen- 
cies to  placement  in  university,  government,  and  other  research  and 
policy-making  settings.  Transfer  between  the  five-year  co-op  program 
and  the  four-year  full-time  program  is  possible,  and  registration  in  either 
is  not  an  irreversible  decision. 

The  Department  offers  both  a  Bachelor  of  Arts  and  a  Bachelor  of 
Science  degree.  The  requirements  for  each  degree,  both  in  sociology 
and  in  anthropology,  are  outlined  below.  A  student  with  specific  goals 
may,  of  course,  take  more  departmental  electives  than  are  required.  B.A. 
students  may  wish  to  look  at  the  concentration  requirements  for  B.S. 
students  and  consult  their  advisers  for  assistance  in  planning  programs 
with  specialized  goals. 


76  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

The  Department  offers  a  B.S.  witfi  concentrations  in  anthropology  or

Special  Programs  in  the 
College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

Reflecting  the  awareness  that  ideas,  fields  of  study,  and  interests  do  not 
always  fall  into  traditional,  neatly  compartmentalized  units,  the  College 
of  Arts  and  Sciences  makes  a  wide  variety  of  special  programs  available 
to  its  students.  Field-study  programs,  international  work/study  opportu- 
nities, interdisciplinary  majors  and  minors,  involvement  with  profession- 
als— all  are  among  the  options  available  to  students  who  meet  the 
program  eligibility  requirements.  Students  who  participate  in  these  pro- 
grams should  find  their  educational  experience  at  Northeastern  greatly 
enhanced.  Detailed  information  about  these  programs  is  available  from 
involved  departments  and  the  Dean's  Office. 

Availability  of  all  special  programs  is  contingent  upon  minimum  enroll- 
ment requirements  and,  when  an  outside  institution  is  involved,  contin- 
ued affiliation  of  that  institution  with  the  University. 

Minors 

The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  offers  to  all  upperclass  students  in  the 
College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  as  well  as  in  other  colleges  in  the  Univer- 
sity several  choices  of  minors.  Below  is  a  list  of  all  those  minors.  Descrip- 
tions of  those  that  are  offered  through  one  department  are  found  in  the 
section  of  this  publication  for  that  department;  descriptions  of  interdis- 
ciplinary minors,  those  indicated  with  an  asterisk,  are  found  in  this  Spe-

American  Sign  Language 

American  Sign  Language  (ASL)  is  the  primary  language  used  by  the 
Deaf  community  in  the  United  States  and  parts  of  Canada.  A  language 
expressed  through  gesture  and  perceived  visually,  ASL  is  not  patterned 
after,  nor  denved  from,  English  or  any  other  spoken  language — it  is 
entirely  different.  Having  its  own  means  of  expression,  wit,  poetry,  and 
rich  folklore,  ASL  reflects  the  thoughts,  cultural  values,  and  experiences 
of  Deaf  people.  A  knowledge  of  ASL  is  one  prerequisite  for  acceptance 
into  the  Deaf  community;  it  is  essential  for  those  who  have  a  personal  or 
professional  interest  in  interacting  with  Deaf  individuals. 

The  Northeastern  University  Sign  Language  Programs,  affiliated  with 
the  Department  of  Modern  Languages,  offers  both  day  and  evening 
courses  in  ASL  conversation  and  interpretation.  Courses  in  the  structure 
of  ASL,  Deaf  culture,  Deaf  history,  and  sign  language  teaching  are  aiso 
among  the  programs  offered.  The  content  of  the  conversation  courses 
is  designed  to  include  features  typically  found  in  second-language  cur- 
ncula:  vocabulary,  grammatical  structure,  and  the  culture  of  the  target 
language  group.  A  segment  of  each  course  provides  an  opportunity  for 
students  to  interact  directly  with  Deaf  people,  observe  ASL  in  use,  and 
practice  their  signing  skills.  The  program  also  makes  use  of  instructional 
media  for  individualized  practice  on  receptive  skills  and  vocabulary 
review. 

Through  the  interpreting  courses  and  programs  offered,  students  may 
prepare  themselves  for  certification  through  the  National  Registry  of  In- 
terpreters for  the  Deaf. 

Interpreter  Training  During  the  summer.  Sign  Language  Programs 
offers  intensive  training  opportunities  for  beginning  sign  language  inter- 
preters. The  Summer  Program  for  the  Training  of  Sign  Language  Inter- 
preters is  a  rigorous  introduction  to  the  field  of  inter-cultural  com- 
munication between  Deaf  and  hearing  people.  Among  the  theoretical 
and  practical  content  areas  addressed  in  the  course  are  consecutive 
and  simultaneous  interpretation,  ethics  and  interpreter  role,  public 
speaking,  and  interpretation  for  special  populations  and  in  special  set- 
tings. Applicants  must  provide  evidence  of  proficiency  in  English  and 
ASL,  as  well  as  extensive  experience  in  the  Deaf  community. 

Sign  Language  Teacher  Training  As  the  New  England  regional  train- 
ing program  under  the  National  Association  of  the  Deaf  National  Con- 
sortium of  Programs  for  the  Training  of  Sign  Language  Instructors, 
Northeastern  University  offers  programs  to  train  teachers  of  ASL.  The 
Summer  Program  for  the  Training  of  Sign  Language  Instructors  offers 
an  intensive  introduction  to  the  professional  teaching  of  ASL  as  a  second 
language.  It  is  designed  for  current  and  prospective  teachers  who  are 
already  fluent  in  ASL.

Business  Minor 

The  College  of  Business  Administration,  in  collaboration  with  the  College 
of  Arts  and  Sciences,  offers  a  minor  in  Business  for  all  students  outside 
the  College  of  Business  Administration.  This  minor  may  be  valuable  to 
students  seeking  jobs  both  before  and  after  graduation,  in  either  the 
public  or  the  private  sector. 

The  courses  in  the  minor  cover  substantially  the  areas  of  business 
required  by  the  American  Assembly  of  Collegiate  Schools  of  Business 
as  part  of  the  relevant  "common  body  of  knowledge." 

The  business  courses  included  (with  one  exception,  Accounting)  are 
the  same  as  those  taken  by  all  students  in  the  College  of  Business 
Administration.  Thus,  the  minor  should  encourage  a  cross-fertilization  of 
ideas  that  will  be  beneficial  to  both  CBA  and  non-CBA  students. 

For  details,  including  full  requirements  and  program  admission  stan- 
dards, interested  persons  should  consult  the  Dean's  Office  of  the  Col-

The  Center  for  the  Study  of 
Sport  in  Society 

The  Center  for  the  Study  of  Sport  in  Society,  the  first  of  its  kind  in  the 
nation,  was  established  to  address  the  abuses  of  athletes'  education 
and  rights.  Still  in  its  formative  stages,  the  Center  has  already  estab- 
lished a  University  Degree  Connpletion  Progrann  for  current  or  former 
professional  athletes  and  has  formal  agreements  with  the  players  as- 
sociation in  the  NBA,  NFL,  USFL,  NHL,  and  the  two  soccer  leagues. 
The  Center  will  be  the  hub  of  a  national  consortium  of  universities  for 
the  UDCP.  The  Center  has  also  established  a  North  American  Faculty 
Affiliates  network  of  eighty  of  the  nation's  top  sports  scholars  who  ad- 
dress and  research  the  various  academic  areas  of  sport  studies.  The 
Center  sponsors  seminars;  it  sponsors  a  broad-based  curriculum  in 
sport  and  social  issues;  it  gives  annual  awards  for  excellence  in  sports 
journalism,  both  in  print  and  audiovisual  media;  and  it  promotes  cam- 
pus-wide lectures,  forums,  and  news  conferences.  Two  journals  are  also 
published  through  the  Center:  The  Journal  of  Sport  and  Social  Issues 
and  the  ARENA  Review. 

The  director  of  the  program  is  Dr.  Richard  Lapchick,  author,  scholar, 
and  civil  rights  activist.  Thomas  "Satch"  Sanders,  former  Boston  Celtics 
player  and  coach  of  Harvard's  basketball  team,  is  the  associate  director.

television  news,  is  the  senior  fellow. 

Combined  Program  with 
Professional  Schools 

Students  who  have  completed  at  least  three-fourths  of  the  course  work 
required  for  a  baccalaureate  degree  in  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 
and  are  accepted  into  an  approved  professional  school  of  dentistry, 
law,  medicine,  optometry,  osteopathy,  or  veterinary  medicine  will  be 
eligible  for  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  or  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  at  the 
end  of  their  second  year  in  professional  school.  At  least  two-thirds  of 
work  for  the  baccalaureate  degree  must  be  earned  in  residence  at 
Northeastern,  and  all  other  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  requirements 
must  be  fulfilled,  the  residence  requirement  having  been  completed 
prior  to  entrance  into  the  professional  school.  Under  this  program,  a 
preprofessional  student  may  reduce  by  one  year  the  time  normally 
required  for  obtaining  both  the  undergraduate  and  professional  de- 
grees. 

Division  of  Fine  Arts 

The  Division  of  Fine  Arts  coordinates  the  University's  academic  and 
performing  arts  activities.  Comprising  the  departments  of  Art  and  Archi- 
tecture, Theatre  and  Dance,  and  Music,  the  Division  was  established  in 
1981  to  enrich  and  expand  the  role  of  the  arts  at  Northeastern.  The 
Division  develops  arts  curricula  through  the  support  of  existing  pro- 
grams, creates  interdisciplinary  courses  to  provide  a  forum  for  intellec- 
tual stimulation  and  professional  development,  and  generates 
programming  in  both  traditional  and  experimental  art  forms. 

As  the  producer  of  professional  arts  events  at  Northeastern,  the  Divi- 
sion offers  a  broad  range  of  programs  in  film,  music,  dance,  literary  arts, 
visual  arts,  theatre,  and  performance  art.  A  year-round  schedule  of

The  Division's  publications  include  the  NuArts  Calendar,  a  quarterly  pre- 
view of  events;  NEW  MUSIC-BOSTON,  a  contemporary  music  listing  for 
the  Boston  area;  and  numerous  programs,  brochures,  and  catalogs.  A 
new  arts  magazine  will  begin  publication  in  1985  with  features  on  the 
activities  and  accomplishments  of  the  Division  and  its  constituent 
departments. 

Affiliations  with  local  and  national  arts  groups  enable  the  Division  to 
expand  and  strengthen  the  scope  of  arts  activities  at  Northeastern.  The 
Boston  Lyric  Opera,  the  Boston  Theater  of  the  Deaf,  and  the  Boston 
chapter  of  the  League  of  Composers-International  Society  For  Contem- 
porary Music  work  through  the  Division's  auspices  to  produce  full  sea- 
sons of  performances. 

To  ensure  that  the  arts  remain  an  important  and  vital  part  of  the  Uni- 
versity and  its  community,  the  Northeastern  University  Division  of  Fine 
Arts  encourages  both  academic  excellence  and  professional  achieve- 
ment. By  sponsoring  new  works  commissioning  programs,  by  present- 
ing important  emerging  artists,  and  by  incorporating  contemporary 
notions  of  the  role  of  the  artist  in  society,  the  Division  of  Fine  Arts  main- 
tains an  important  position  in  the  cultural  and  educational  life  of  this 
modern  urban  university. 


East/West  Marine 
Biology  Program 


The  East/West  Marine  Biology  Program  is  a  joint  project  of  Northeastern 
University  and  the  University  of  Oregon,  which  allows  students  of  biology 
to  spend  an  exciting  year  of  field  study  in  three  very  different  marine 
environments:  coastal  Oregon,  Jamaica,  and  New  England. 

The  program  begins  in  the  fall  on  the  coast  of  Oregon,  well  noted  for 
its  large  algae,  stunning  marine  invertebrates,  and  numerous  fish,  birds, 
and  marine  mammals.  While  living  at  the  Oregon  Institute  of  Manne 
Biology,  students  study  basic  marine  botany  and  invertebrate  and  ver- 
tebrate zoology.  These  courses  offer  students  the  opportunity  to  build  a 
foundation  for  a  better  understanding  of  the  comparative  courses  in 
tropical  and  east  coast  marine  biology  that  follow. 

In  January,  students  move  to  Jamaica  to  study  tropical  biology  at  a 
small  marine  laboratory  on  the  north  coast  of  the  island,  near  the  town  of 
Ochos  Rios.  The  lab  is  located  on  the  beach  within  walking  and  swim- 
ming distance  of  rich  coral  reefs  and  sandy  bays  interspersed  with  beds 
of  turtle  grass.  Courses  focus  on  the  tropical  environment  while  building 
on  the  comparative  aspects  of  field  biology  by  reminding  students  of 
their  work  in  Oregon.  Visits  to  the  interior  of  the  island  and  lectures  on  its 
terrestrial  aspects  are  an  important  part  of  the  program. 

Students  who  have  lived  and  worked  together  in  Oregon  and  Jamaica 
travel  for  a  third  and  final  phase  of  the  program  to  Northeastern  Univer- 
sity. Students  live  in  University  housing  but  spend  most  of  their  time  at 
the  Marine  Science  and  Maritime  Studies  Center  at  East  Point,  Nahant, 
just  north  of  Boston.  The  laboratory  is  located  on  several  acres  of  open 
space  at  the  end  of  a  rocky  point  extending  into  the  Atlantic  Ocean. 
Courses  here  focus  on  the  marine  plants  and  animals  of  New  England 
while  emphasizing  advanced  and  comparative  aspects  of  biology.

that  they  meet  the  requirements  for  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  as 
independent  rather  than  departmental  majors.  The  independent  major 
must  center  on  a  discipline  or  combination  of  disciplines  in  the  arts  and/ 
or  sciences. 


Special  Programs  /  87 

A  faculty  member  acting  as  the  student's  academic  adviser  initially 
reviews  the  program,  which  must  meet  all  College  requirements.  The 
program  is  then  submitted  to  the  appropriate  committee  for  final  ap- 
proval. Requirements  and  procedures  for  the  major  should  be  discussed 
in  advance  with  an  academic  adviser  in  the  dean's  office.

on  an  exchange  basis  in  cooperation  with  overseas  institutions  and 
sponsoring  agencies.  Students  whose  academic,  linguistic,  and  profes- 
sional expenence  make  them  attractive  candidates  for  overseas  posi- 
tions may  work  in  Great  Britain,  Sweden,  Ireland,  Canada  and  the  French 
and  German-speaking  countries  of  Europe.  By  creating  a  mutually  ben- 
eficial situation  for  students  and  employers,  the  program  helps  to  meet 
an  increasing  need  for  qualified  professionals  who  possess  international 
expertise  and  language  proficiency  necessary  to  assist  companies  in 
expanding  their  overseas  markets.  Students  may  obtain  detailed  infor- 
mation about  the  program  from  the  Department  of  Modern  Languages

Linguistics  Minor 

In  collaboration  with  four  other  departments— English,  Modern  Lan- 
guages, Philosophy  and  Religion,  and  Sociology/Anthropology— the 
Psychology  Department  offers  the  Linguistics  Minor,  which  reflects  the 
current  research  of  such  diverse  people  as  linguists,  sociologists,  psy- 
chologists, language  educators,  speech  pathologists,  neurologists,  and 
teachers  of  second  languages.  The  minor  in  Linguistics  complements 
the  study  of  any  other  language-related  area  such  as  computer  science, 
anthropology,  brain  physiology,  or  language  teaching.  Specialized  con- 
centrations within  linguistics  include  psycholinguistics,  stylistics,  lan- 
guage and  culture,  second  language  teaching  and  applied  linguistics, 
theoretical  linguistics,  and  American  Sign  Language  linguistics.  Many 
research  opportunities  exist  through  directed  work  study.

cated Kensington  in  shared  apartments  and  take  their  classes  on-site. 

London  Political  Internship 
Programme 

The  Political  Science  Department  and  the  London  Internship  Consort 
have  joined  together  to  offer  American  university  students  the  opportu- 
nity to  learn  and  gain  working  experience  at  the  very  heart  of  British

with  major  party  leaders  and  current  and  former  Prime  Ministers.  One 
half-price  scholarship  is  available  to  a  Northeastern  University  student 
each  year.  Application  and  eligibility  information  is  available  from  the 
Division  of  Special  Programs,  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences. 

Marine  Studies  l\/linor 

The  Marine  Studies  minor  reflects  the  educational  resources  and  mari- 
time heritage  of  New  England  and  offers  the  undergraduate  student  the 
opportunity  for  an  unusual  focus  in  a  liberal  arts  education.  Study  of  the 
oceans,  like  approaches  to  other  intellectual  frontiers,  demands  an  in- 
tegrated interdisciplinary  approach.  The  Marine  Studies  minor  is  struc- 
tured to  allow  a  primary,  although  not  exclusive,  emphasis  on  either  the 
scientific  or  the  social  science/humanistic  study  of  the  oceans.  Some 
physical  interaction  with  the  sea  is  required  through  demonstrated 
achievement  in  a  specific  marine-related  skill  such  as  scuba  diving, 
sailing,  or  piloting/navigation.  The  minor  is  notthe  principal  preparation 
for  employment  in  marine  related  positions  but  rather  an  opportunity  to 
enrich  a  liberal  education.  Full  information  is  available  from  the  Director 
of  the  Center  for  Marine  Science  and  Maritime  Studies. 

Massachusetts  Bay 
Marine  Studies  Consortium 

Northeastern  University  is  a  member  of  the  Massachusetts  Bay  Marine 
Studies  Consortium.  The  Consortium  serves  the  students  and  faculty  of 
22  Boston-area  colleges  and  universities.  The  courses  are  interdiscipli- 
nary and  seek  to  bridge  the  gap  between  academic  disciplines  and  to 
address  current  concerns  in  the  marine  world.  The  Consortium  catalog 
includes  a  fall  course,  A  History  of  Seafaring,  a  look  at  cultures  and 
societies  of  the  past  as  reflected  in  their  maritime  activities;  and  three 
winter  courses— Water,  Water,  an  interdisciplinary  survey  of  water-re- 
lated problems  in  their  cultural,  political,  economic,  technological,  and 
scientific  complexity:  Into  the  Ocean  World,  an  interdisciplinary  introduc- 
tion to  marine  studies;  and  Marine  Mammals,  taught  at  the  New  England 
Aquarium. 

For  further  information  contact  the  University's  Consortium  represen- 
tative. 

Media  Studies 

We  live  in  a  media-oriented  society  in  which  political  outcomes  and 
social  values  are  affected,  if  not  determined,  by  the  mass  media.  Stu- 
dents who  pursue  the  Media  Studies  Minor  examine  the  media  from  a 
number  of  perspectives.  Media  Studies  courses  are  selected  from  the 
departments  of  Political  Science,  Music,  Speech  Communication,  Jour- 
nalism, Art,  Drama,  History,  and  English.  Each  student  satisfies  require- 
ments in  the  background  and  theory  of  Mass  Media  and  then  completes 
the  program  by  selecting  courses  in  the  areas  of  Media  Production  and 
Media  Application.  The  program  is  considered  a  strong  complement  to 
majors  in  a  variety  of  fields  given  the  impact  of  mass  mediated  mes- 
sages on  contemporary  organizations  and  society  in  general. 

New  England  Conservatory 
Affiliation 

According  to  a  reciprocal  agreement  between  Northeastern  and  the 
New  England  Conservatory,  a  limited  number  of  qualified  Arts  and  Sci- 
ences students  may  take  courses  at  the  New  England  Conservatory  as 
part  of  the  regular  course  load  and  tuition  fee  at  Northeastern.  This 


90  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

arrangement  provides  for  Northeastern  students  who  qualify  the  oppor- 
tunity to  enhance  their  cultural  life  by  taking  part  in  the  richness  of  music 
education  that  is  the  hallmark  of  the  Conservatory.  Northeastern  students 
who  participate  in  this  program,  as  well  as  any  student  who  declares 
music  as  his  or  her  major,  are  also  given  full  library  privileges  to  the 
Conservatory. 

Students  interested  in  this  program  should  contact  Professor  Joshua 
Jacobson,  Chairman  of  the  Music  Department  at  Northeastern,  437- 
2440,  to  make  the  appropriate  arrangements. 

Oxford  Study  Semester 

Students  from  Northeastern  University  will  join  students  from  throughout 
the  U.S.  to  study  under  Oxford  University  professors.  The  major  empha- 
sis of  the  program  will  be  international  relations,  with  lecture  courses  in 
British  History  and  British  Government  supplemented  by  tutorial  semi- 
nars in  such  subjects  as  International  Economic  Policy,  and  Develop- 
ment of  the  European  Economic  Community. 

Personality  and  Social 
Psychology 

The  Departments  of  Psychology  and  Sociology/Anthropology  have  com- 
bined their  resources  to  offer  students  a  new  interdisciplinary  speciali- 
zation that  can  be  pursued  for  a  degree  in  either  of  these  academic 
departments. 

The  specialization  in  Personality  and  Social  Psychology  offers  stu 
dents  the  opportunity  to  acquire  a  systematic  understanding  of  various 
life  processes,  such  as  childrearing,  aggression,  anxiety,  prejudice,  at- 
titude formation  and  change,  moral  development,  and  psychopathology 
It  includes  studies  of  attraction  and  love,  conformity,  formation  of  identity, 
helping  behavior,  morality,  and  other  related  topics. 

Students  pursuing  an  interdisciplinary  specialization  take  courses  in 
both  the  Psychology  and  Sociology/Anthropology  Departments.  How- 
ever, the  student  may  select  the  department  in  which  the  specialization 
will  be  pursued. 

In  making  this  selection,  the  student  should  consider  how  each  de 
partment  differs  in  methods  and  level  of  analysis.  These  differences  as 
well  as  various  course  offerings  are  outlined  in  a  brochure  titled  A  New 
Specialization:  Personality  and  Social  Psychology,  which  can  be  ob- 
tained by  writing  to  the  Department  of  Psychology  (234  Nightingale  Hall) 
or  the  Department  of  Sociology/Anthropology  (500  Holmes  Hall).  Also, 
prospective  students  should  discuss  their  potential  department  affilia- 
tions with  Professors  Golden  or  Levin  (Sociology/Anthropology)  and  Pro- 
fessors Harkins  or  Zamansky  (Psychology).  (This  is  an  interdisciplinary 
program  that  is  separate  from  the  Social  Psychology  specialization-out- 
lined on  page  80.) 

Russian  Studies  Minor 

The  Russian  Studies  Minor  is  an  interdisciplinary  program  which  pro- 
vides students  with  an  opportunity  to  develop  a  broad  understanding  of 
an  important  area  by  studying  its  language,  society,  history,  economy 
culture,  and  behavior.  The  program  attempts  to  help  students  become 
knowledgeable  about  an  important  culture  that  generally  receives  quite 
limited  treatment  in  secondary  schools.  The  minor  may  help  to  prepare 
students  for  further  graduate  study  in  specialized  areas  such  as  govern- 


Special  Programs  /  91 

ment,  teaching,  journalism,  and  business,  and  may  provide  the  begin- 
nings of  such  specialized  knowledge  that  will  enhance  students'  career 
opportunities  in  the  absence  of  graduate  study  in  the  aforementioned 
employment  fields. 

School  for  Field  Studies 

The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  is  affiliated  with  the  School  for  Field 
Studies  (SFS),  a  nonprofit  educational  organization  that  offers  one-  and 
two-month  field  study  expeditions  throughout  the  world.  Semester  pro- 
grams on  Wildlife  Management,  Athi  Plains,  Kenya,  and  on  Coral  Reef 
Ecology,  St.  John,  U.S.  Virgin  Islands  are  offered  yearly.  Programs  com- 
bine applied  academics  with  training  in  field  research  methods  and 
teamwork— an  exciting  hands-on  approach  to  science.  Credit  is  granted 
for  the  coursework.  Students  of  all  levels  and  disciplines  are  eligible,  but 
participation  of  Northeastern  University  students  is  limited  proportionate 
to  the  total  number  of  outside  participants  in  the  SFS  program.  Additional 
information  may  be  obtained  in  the  Arts  and  Sciences  Dean's  Office. 

Technical  Communication  Minor 

Technical  Communication  combines  written,  oral,  and  graphics  skills 
with  a  background  in  science  or  technology.  The  minor  in  Technical 
Communication  helps  students  prepare  for  careers  as  technical  writers, 
or  for  careers  in  which  technical  communication  is  a  significant  part  of 
their  jobs.  Students  in  English  or  other  liberal  arts  studies  may  elect  the 
minor,  as  may  students  from  a  variety  of  technological  or  scientific  fields. 

Trent  Polytechnic  Exchange 
Program 

The  Trent  program  presents  an  opportunity  for  upperclass  Northeastern 
students  to  study  theory  and  practice  of  social  and  human  services  in 
the  United  Kingdom.  Students  participate  in  an  academic  term  at  Trent 
Polytechnic  in  Nottingham,  England,  and  an  additional  six-month  coop- 
erative experience  in  appropriate  institutions  and  organizations. 

Students  study  the  development  of  contemporary  British  social  struc- 
ture, its  institutions  and  strategies  to  deal  with  modern  social  problems. 
Their  assignment  to  a  specific  institution  offers  a  chance  for  firsthand 
observations  of  a  particular  social  or  human  service. 

Trent  is  the  largest  practitioner  of  cooperative  education  in  the  United 
Kingdom.  Community  Service  Volunteers  (CSV),  an  organization  com- 
parable to  our  VISTA,  places  students  for  the  cooperative  period.  CSV  is 
an  educational  charity  which  involves  young  people  in  full-time  commu- 
nity service  work  throughout  Great  Bntain  (for  example,  diagnostic  cen- 
ters, schools  for  emotionally  disturbed  children,  or  social  service 
departments  in  local  communities). 

These  two  organizations  provide  a  unique  and  challenging  program 
for  Northeastern  students  who  qualify  academically.  The  program  can 
accommodate  twenty  to  thirty  students.  Interested  students  should  con- 
tact the  Department  of  Sociology  and  Anthropology  or  the  International 
Cooperative  Education  Office. 

Urban  Studies  Minor 

The  Urban  Studies  minor  offers  courses  with  an  urban  orientation  in  four 
main  areas:  (1)  urban  problems  and  policies;  (2)  urban  form  and  design; 
(3)  African-American  studies;  and  (4)  urban  humanities.  The  minor  may 
be  useful  for  the  student  who  majors  in  one  of  the  social  sciences  (his- 
tory, economics,  political  science)  as  well  as  the  student  with  a  career 


92  /  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

orientation  towards  political  science  or  business  administration  in  urban 
areas.  The  minor  presents  the  opportunity  to  study. the  approach  of 
different  disciplines  to  solve  the  same  set  of  urban  problems.  Studying 
the  viewpoint  of  artists,  minorities,  economists,  and  others,  the  student 
is  given  the  chance  to  develop  a  broader  perspective  on  the  identity  of 
urban  areas.  Like  an  art  appreciation  course,  the  minor  provides  back- 
ground information  and  criteria  for  appreciation  of  the  urban  environ- 
ment. Students  may  contact  any  one  of  the  participating  departments  or 
the  Dean's  Office  for  additional  information. 

Washington  internship  Program 

Students  study  U.S.  Foreign  Policy  and  International  Relations,  do  spe- 
cialized research  in  a  field  such  as  Central  America,  Arms  Control,  or 
U.S. -European  Relations,  and  serve  an  internship  in  Congress  or  a  gov- 
ernment agency  or  department.  Frequent  guest  lectures  by  influential 
government  experts  will  supplement  the  academic  program. 

Women's  Studies  iVIinor 

Women's  Studies  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  broaden  their  knowl- 
edge and  understanding  of  human  experience  by  approaching  various 
disciplines  from  a  non-traditional  perspective — that  of  women.  In  the 
courses  offered  as  part  of  Northeastern  University's  interdisciplinary 
Women's  Studies  minor,  students  will  examine  traditional  stereotypes 
and  roles,  learn  about  women's  contribution  to  our  history  and  culture, 
and  consider  the  changing  situation  of  women  in  the  1980s.  Dr.  Debra 
Kaufman,  Department  of  Sociology  and  Anthropology,  may  be  con- 
tacted for  further  information.

out interruption  since  1928,  is  America's  leading  historical  review  of  New 
England  life  and  letters.  Each  book-length  issue  presents  major  articles 
in  the  fields  of  literature,  history,  and  culture;  a  special  feature  of  brief 
memoranda  and  recently  discovered  documents;  and  a  substantial 
book  review  section. 

Romanticism  Past  and  Present  Romanticism  Past  and  Present  pub- 
lishes articles  and  reviews  of  books  dealing  with  a  Romantic  sense  of 
the  past.  After  changing  its  title  from  Milton  and  the  Romantics  in  1981, 
the  journal  shifted  direction  to  make  it  responsive  to  a  broadening  con- 
ception of  Romanticism  and  Romantic  studies.  Presently,  Romanticism 
Past  and  Present  publishes  articles,  notes,  and  reviews.  Seeking  to  de- 
velop a  comparatist  and  interdisciplinary  orientation,  the  journal  brings 
interdisciplinary  and  international  concerns  to  bear  on  the  study  of  En- 
glish Romantic  literature. 

The  Scriblerian  The  Scriblerian,  founded  in  1969,  is  published  in  the

Science  degree  who  entered  in  or  after  the  fall  quarter  of  1984  must 
successfully  complete  176  quarter  hours  of  credit,  of  which  thirty-two 
quarter  hours  may  be  taken  outside  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences.  In 
addition,  only  four  quarter  hours  of  Physical  Education  credits  and  no 
ROTC  credits  may  be  used  to  meet  degree  requirements. 

Residency  Candidates  must  complete  either  75  percent  of  the  degree 
credit  at  Northeastern  or  the  last  three  full  quarters  (a  minimum  of  twelve 
full  courses)  at  Northeastern. 

Qualitative  Candidates  must  achieve  a  minimum  cumulative  average 
of  2.0  (grade  of  C). 

Freshman  English  All  degree  candidates  must  complete  one  quarter 
of  Freshman  Composition  and  one  quarter  of  Introduction  to  Literature. 
Normally,  this  will  be  done  by  completing  courses  ENG  1110  and  ENG 
1111  at  Northeastern. 

Major  Candidates  must  complete  successfully  the  courses  specified 
as  major  requirements.  A  complete  listing  of  these  required  courses  is 
published  in  the  Basic  Day  College  Course  Descriptions  and  Curriculum 
Guide. 

Core  Curriculum  Students  entering  the  college  as  freshmen  in  the  fall 
of  1984  and  all  new  students  entering  in  the  fall  of  1985  or  thereafter 
must  complete  several  "core  requirements"  for  graduation;  these  re- 
place the  previous  college  "distribution  requirements."  The  Core  Curric- 
ulum requires  that  courses  be  taken  in  the  following  areas:  basic  skills, 
both  communicative  and  quantitative;  methods  of  inquiry;  alternative 
cultures  and  societies;  Western  cultural  heritage;  theoretical  perspec- 
tives and  changes;  and  current  issues  in  perspective.  Full  details  are 
provided  to  students  at  entry,  and  are  also  available  from  academic 
advisers  in  the  Dean's  Office. 

For  all  students  who  entered  prior  to  the  fall  of  1984,  and  for  upper- 
class  students  who  entered  in  the  fall  of  1984,  the  previous  "distribution 
requirements"  must  be  satisfied,  as  described  in  earlier  editions  of  this 
Bulletin.  Again,  full  details  are  available  from  academic  advisers  in  the 
Dean's  Office. 

Foreign  Language  All  candidates  for  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree 
must  attain  a  level  of  proficiency  in  a  modern  foreign  language  indicated 
by  passing  grades  in  intermediate-level  college  courses  or  by  meeting 
a  comparable  criterion  that  has  been  approved  by  the  Modern  Lan- 
guages Department. 


General  Regulations  /  95 

A  conditional  exemption  fronn  this  requirement  may  be  granted  in 
the  following  situations: 

1)  students  who  earned  an  average  grade  of  C  or  better  in  a  full,  four- 
year  language  sequence  in  secondary  school 

2)  students  who  earned  an  average  grade  of  A  in  a  three-year  language 
sequence  in  secondary  school. 

A  conditional  exemption  must  be  confirmed  by  taking  a  proficiency 
examination  during  the  first  quarter  at  the  University.  A  sufficiently  high 
score  will  verify  the  exemption;  otherwise  the  student  will  be  advised  of 
the  appropriate  language  course  to  take  in  the  following  quarter. 
An  absolute  exemption  will  be  granted  to  students: 

1)  for  whom  English  is  a  foreign  language 

2)  who  receive  a  score  of  550  or  better  in  the  Language  Achievement 
Examinations. 

For  students  who  have  not  met  the  foreign  language  requirement  at 
the  time  of  entrance,  the  entry  level  into  foreign  language  study  depends 
upon  the  scope  and  level  of  prior  study.  The  normal  sequence  for  stu- 
dents with  no  prior  preparation  is  two  quarters  of  elementary-level  lan- 
guage and  two  quarters  of  intermediate-level  language.  The  Modern 
Languages  Department  will  determine  an  appropriate  entry  point  at 
which  students  who  have  partial  language  preparation  may  begin  com- 
pleting the  requirement. 

Graduation  with  Honors 

Candidates  who  have  achieved  superior  grades  in  their  academic  work 
will  be  graduated  cum  laude.  Upon  special  vote  of  the  faculty,  a  limited 
number  of  this  group  may  be  graduated  magna  cum  laude  or  summa 
cum  laude.  Students  must  have  been  in  attendance  at  the  University  for 
at  least  six  academic  quarters  before  they  become  eligible  for  honors  at 
graduation. 

Commencement  Exercises 

The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  holds  commencement  exercises  each 
June  and  September. 

Accreditation 

All  programs  in  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  are  fully  accredited  by

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Program  Professional  preparation  is  based 
in  the  liberal  arts  and  sciences,  with  orientation  to  each  profession  be- 
ginning in  the  freshman  year.  There  is  a  concentration  on  specific  com- 
petencies spaced  throughout  the  programs  and  on  professional  theory 
and  practice  in  the  last  two  years.  In  the  junior  or  senior  year,  all  students 
have  the  opportunity  to  synthesize  knowledge  and  skills  through  super- 
vised experiences  in  clinical  practice,  student  teaching,  field  experi- 
ence, or  internships.  Each  curriculum  is  enriched  by  cooperative 
education  experiences  that,  for  the  most  part,  are  related  to  a  student's 
area  of  specialization.  At  times,  these  experiences  are  professionally 
unrelated,  but  are  always  concerned  with  people,  thus  providing  an 
opportunity  of  inestimable  value  in  any  career. 

Facilities 

The  facilities  of  the  College  are  quite  diversified.  Dockser  Hall  houses 
administrative  and  faculty  offices,  classrooms,  a  gymnasium,  dance  stu- 
dio, computer  laboratories,  physiology  of  exercise  laboratory,  and  locker 
and  shower  facilities,  as  well  as  seminar  rooms,  and  a  motor-learning 
laboratory.  The  swimming  pool,  weight  room,  handball/racquetball 
courts,  offices,  and  shower  and  dressing  facilities  are  located  in  the 
Barletta  Natatonum  complex.  The  Cabot  Building,  attached  to  Barletta, 
contains  one  very  large  gymnasium  and  another  well  equipped  for  gym- 
nastics, as  well  as  wrestling,  exercise,  and  weight  training  rooms,  an 
athletic  training  laboratory,  an  indoor  track  and  activity  area,  offices,  and 
extensive  locker  room  space. 

The  Department  of  Education  administratively  houses  three  resources 
for  Boston-Bouve  College:  The  Reading  Clinic,  The  F.  Andre  Favat 
Learning  and  Resources  Center  and  Library  of  Children's  Literature,  and 
the  Russell  J.  Call  Children's  Center.  The  Reading  Clinic,  in  1  Holmes 


98  /  Boston-Bouve  College 

Hall,  provides  corrective  instruction  for  area  school  children  while  stu- 
dents enrolled  in  the  Departnnent's  reading  courses  receive  clinical  ex- 
perience. The  F.  Andre  Favat  Center,  in  1  Nightingale  Hall,  contains  a 
collection  of  children's  literature  and  related  learning  resources  includ- 
ing books,  tests,  professional  journals  and  manipulative  materials.  The 
Russell  J.  Call  Children's  Center,  located  in  the  Forsyth  Building,  pro- 
vides day  care  for  children  ranging  in  age  from  two  years  and  nine 
months  to  five  years  whose  parents  are  faculty,  staff,  or  students  of 
Northeastern  University.  Forsyth  Building  is  the  location  for  a  Speech- 
Language-Hearing  Clinic  and  Laboratory,  where  students  may  observe, 
through  one-way  glass  or  television  monitors,  the  actual  delivery  of  clin- 
ical services.  The  Human  Services  Program  office  is  in  room  127,  Mes- 
erve  Hall. 

The  Physical  Therapy  Department  is  located  in  Mary  Gass  Robinson 
Hall.  On  the  third  and  fourth  floors  are  the  physical  therapy  faculty  of- 
fices, the  Lupean  Professional  Library,  classrooms,  and  three  laborato- 
ries. The  laboratories  are  designed  and  equipped  specifically  for  the 
practice  of  clinical  procedures  and  research.  The  library's  reading  room 
supplements  the  University  library,  maintaining  an  up-to-date  collection 
of  physical  therapy  and  medical  books  for  use  by  students  and  faculty 
in  the  program  and  the  College. 

The  Warren  Center  serves  as  a  practical  laboratory  for  the  College.  Its 
athletic  fields  and  tennis  courts,  ropes  course,  cross-country  ski  trails, 
natural  setting  of  lake,  woods,  fields,  streams,  winterized  cottages,  and 
Hayden  Lodge  provide  year-round  opportunities  for  outdoor  learning 
twenty-five  miles  from  the  Boston  campus.  Courses,  conferences,  sem- 
inars, and  workshops  are  conducted  at  the  Center  throughout  the  year 
and  thus  serve  University  and  community  needs. 

Admission

Students  must  satisfy  the  requirements  of  the  Department  of  Cooper- 
ative Education  to  become  eligible  for  their  degrees. 

Senior-year  course  work  and  required  experiences  must  be  com- 
pleted in  full-time  residence  at  Northeastern  University  or  in  an  educa- 
tional setting  approved  by  the  College. 

Qualitative  The  overall  cumulative  quality-point  averages  required  to 
enter  each  class  level  are  explicitly  stated  in  the  Student  Handbook. 
Throughout  the  professional  sequence,  students  must  maintain  required 
averages  and  must  demonstrate  a  high  level  of  personal  and  profes- 
sional maturity  to  continue  field  practice  and  be  approved  for  gradua- 
tion. Because  of  accreditation  recommendations  and  differences  in 
curricula,  variations  in  qualitative  requirements  may  occur. 

Transfer  students  in  any  curriculum  may  be  accepted  into  the  College 
at  upperclass  levels  except  in  physical  therapy,  if  there  are  available 
spaces.  Each  transcript  is  individually  assessed  for  qualification,  place- 
ment, and  program  design. 

Graduation  with  Honor 

Candidates  who  have  attained  superior  grades  in  their  academic  work 
will  be  graduated  cum  laude.  Upon  special  vote  of  the  faculty,  a  number 
of  this  group  may  be  graduated  magna  cum  laude  or  summa  cum  laude. 
Students  must  have  been  in  attendance  at  the  University  for  at  least  six 
quarters  before  they  become  eligible  for  honors  at  graduation. 

Program  Accreditation 

The  curriculum  in  Physical  Therapy  is  accredited  by  the  American  Phys- 
ical Therapy  Association.  Programs  in  Early  Childhood,  Elementary  Ed- 
ucation, School  Health  Education,  and  Physical  Education  are  state- 
approved  under  the  Interstate  Certification  Compact  (I.CC). 

Licensure/Registration 

All  fifty  states  have  laws  governing  the  practice  of  physical  therapy.  In 
order  to  be  eligible  for  employment  to  practice  physical  therapy,  gradu- 
ates must  meet  the  specific  legal  requirements  of  the  state  in  which  they 
wish  to  work.  In  most  states  the  requirements  include  graduation  from 
an  accredited  school  of  physical  therapy  and  a  satisfactory  grade  on  a 
written  examination.  Graduates  are  responsible  for  finding  out  what  the 
specific  legal  requirements  are  to  practice  in  the  state  in  which  they 
seek  employment.

Certification 

Upon  successful  completion  of  the  progranns  in  Early  Childhood,  Ele- 
mentary Education,  School  Health  Education,  and  Physical  Education, 
students  are  eligible  to  apply  for  certification  by  the  Commonwealth  of 
Massachusetts.  Certification  is  required  for  public  school  teaching,  but 
does  not  guarantee  a  position.  Reciprocal  certification  is  available  in 
many  states  of  the  United  States,  for  those  who  complete  I.C.C.  ap- 
proved programs.  Graduates  are  responsible  for  determining  the  re- 
quirements of  the  states  in  which  they  are  interested. 

Focus  on  the  Student 

There  is  a  uniqueness  about  this  College.  Perhaps  it  is  the  personal 
touch,  a  keen  interest  in  every  man  and  woman,  expressed  in  individ- 
ualized advice  and  counsel.  The  College  has  its  own  professional  clubs 
and  Dance  Theatre.  Its  social  clubs  and  assemblies  contrast  with  study 
rooms,  seminars,  and  places  for  research.  There  is  skiing  in  winter, 
camping  in  summer,  and  year-round  sports. 

Community  service  is  stressed  in  every  department — service  to  those 
with  special  needs:  the  physically  handicapped,  inner-city  youth,  and 
the  aging.

The  Department  of  Education  offers  basic  and  advanced  courses  in  the 
humanities  and  behavioral  sciences  for  students  in  education,  human 
services,  and  other  human  development  professions.  The  aims  of  these 
courses  are  to  promote  understanding  of  the  processes  of  intentional 
socialization  and  deliberate  intervention  in  people's  lives  and  to  familiar- 
ize students  with  the  body  of  knowledge  dealing  with  the  principles  of 
human  development  and  well-being. 

The  courses  are  open  to  students  across  the  University  provided  they 
can  meet  the  prerequisites  listed  in  the  Basic  Day  Colleges  Course 
Descriptions  and  Curriculum  Guide.

The  Department  of  Education  also  provides  teacher  preparation  pro- 
grams in  a  variety  of  fields  and  levels.  To  assist  students  enrolled  in 
these  programs,  the  Department  utilizes  three  support  units;  the  Read- 
ing Clinic,  the  F.  Andre  Favat  Learning  Resources  Center,  and  the  Rus- 
sell J.  Call  Children's  Center. 

The  aim  of  the  Department  is  to  make  it  possible  for  students  to  gain 
certification  in  a  teaching  major  and/or  level  and  to  acquire  the  compe- 
tencies necessary  for  success  in  teaching. 

Teacher  Preparation 

Early  Childhood  Education  (K-3)*  Students  in  the  Early  Childhood 
Education  program  pursue  studies  in  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 
and  in  other  basic  colleges  of  the  University,  as  well  as  in  the  Boston- 
Bouve  College.  This  broad  academic  background,  combined  with  ex- 
periences in  the  Cooperative  Education  Program,  permits  the  develop- 
ment of  a  cohesive  professional  base.  The  Russell  J.  Call  Children's 
Center  provides  experiences  in  fieldwork  for  students  in  the  Early  Child- 
hood Education  program.  Pre-student  teaching  experiences  in  appro- 
priate field  settings  are  an  integral  part  of  several  required  courses. 

Elementary  Education  (Grades  1-6)*  Elementary  Education  majors 
acquire  a  broad  academic  base  by  enrolling  in  courses  chosen  from 
various  colleges  of  the  University.  Acquiring  the  necessary  teaching 
competencies  is  the  result  of  the  course  experiences,  the  work  experi- 
ences in  the  Cooperative  Education  Program,  and  the  pre-student 
teaching  field  activities.  In  addition  to  courses  required  of  all  Elementary 
Education  majors,  students  choose  an  area  of  emphasis  from  the  follow- 
ing: Humanities,  Language-Reading,  Science-Mathematics,  or  Social 
Science. 

Emphases  usually  consist  of  40  quarter  hours.  Each  emphasis  has 
been  designed  to  help  focus  the  studies,  but  does  not  lead  to  certifica- 
tion in  that  specific  area.  It  may,  however,  serve  as  a  catalyst  for  further 
study  in  a  graduate  program. 

Special  Education  Minor  Students  majoring  in  elementary  education 
may  complete  a  minor  in  special  education  which  will  permit  them  to 
apply  for  certification  to  teach  children  with  moderate  special  needs  in 
the  Commonwealth  of  Massachusetts. 

Secondary  Education  (Grades  9-12)  Programs  of  preparation  to 
teach  Biology,  Chemistry,  Earth  Science,  English,  French,  History,  Math- 
ematics, Physics,  or  Spanish  in  the  schools  of  Massachusetts  are  pro- 
vided for  students  in  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  who  are  majoring 
in  those  respective  fields.  Additionally,  students  majoring  in  Economics, 

*These  programs  are  designed  to  meet  the  requirements  for  certification  in  ttie 
Commonwealtti  of  t[/lassactiusetts  and  in  certain  other  states.  Details  may  be 
obtained  from  the  department  chairman. 


Department  of  Education  / 1 03 

Philosophy,  Political  Science,  or  Sociology  may  pursue  state  certification 
in  the  teaching  of  Social  Studies.  Specified  competencies  established 
for  certification  in  Massachusetts  may  be  acquired  through  cooperative 
education  experiences,  designated  courses,  and  a  quarter  of  full-time 
student  teaching,  arranged  by  the  University's  Department  of  Education. 

English  As  A  Second  Language  The  English  as  a  Second  Language 
Program  provides  preparation  for  teaching  at  the  elementary,  secon- 
dary, and  adult  levels  in  the  United  States  and  abroad.  The  program 
includes  courses  in  foreign  language,  English,  cultural  and  cross  cultural 
studies,  methods  and  materials  for  teaching  English,  and  international 
aspects  of  teaching  and  learning.  This  broad  academic  background 
combined  with  practical  experiences  in  cooperative  education,  offers  a 
strong  professional  foundation  for  those  interested  in  this  teaching  spe- 
cialization. 

Student  Teaching  Student  teaching  is  a  full-time  experience  for  a 
complete  academic  quarter  during  the  senior  year.  It  follows  planned 
experiences  that  are  designed  to  help  the  student  toward  a  rewarding 
quarter  of  student  teaching.  A  University  professor  and  a  cooperating 
classroom  teacher  have  shared  responsibility  in  the  supervision  of  each 
student  teacher. 


Teacher  Certification 


Inasmuch  as  public  education  is  a  state  responsibility,  each  state  pre- 
scribes the  conditions  under  which  persons  may  be  licensed  to  teach  in 
its  public  schools.  The  requirements  for  obtaining  a  certificate  for  teach- 
ing, therefore,  vary  among  the  different  states.

Aims  The  department  provides  programs  and  services,  conducts  re- 
search, and  disseminates  knowledge  concerned  with  improving  the 
quality  of  life  with  respect  to  health,  sport,  and  leisure.  Faculty  are  com- 
mitted to  pre-  and  in-service  preparation  of  practitioners  to  serve  people 
of  all  ages  and  also  to  the  scholarly  investigation  related  to  the  eight 
programs  represented  within  the  department. 

Programs  Professional  preparation  is  provided  in  three  programs: 
Physical  Education,  School  and  Community  Health  Education,  and  Rec- 
reation and  Leisure  Studies.  Physical  Education  students  may  select  a 
concentration  in  Athletic  Training,  Athletic  Training  Teacher  Certification, 
Cardiovascular  Health  and  Exercise,  Dance  Teacher  Certification,  or 
Physical  Education  Teacher  Certification.  Recreation  and  Leisure  stu- 
dents may  choose  to  concentrate  in  Outdoor  Recreation,  Recreation 
Management,  or  Therapeutic  Recreation. 

With  appropriate  use  of  electives,  students  may  combine  concentra- 
tions, for  example:  Health/Athletic  Training,  Athletic  Training/Cardiovas- 
cular Health  and  Exercise,  Physical  Education/Athletic  Training,  or 
Health/Cardiovascular  Health  and  Exercise.  In  some  cases,  these  com- 
bined programs  may  extend  the  date  of  graduation. 

Admissions  Requirements  Students  desiring  admission  to  degree 
programs  must  meet  the  entrance  requirements  of  the  University.  In 
addition  to  transcripts  showing  successful  completion  of  a  secondary 
school  college  preparatory  program,  applicants  must  submit  scores 
from  the  Scholastic  Aptitude  Test  (SAT)  and  three  College  Board 
Achievement  Tests,  preferably  in  areas  related  to  their  intended  fields  of 
study.  Although  not  required,  a  personal  interview  with  an  admissions 
counselor  is  recommended.

Physical  Education/Athletic  Training 

Aims  The  athletic  trainer  plays  an  important  role  not  just  in  professional 
sports,  but  also  in  the  organized  and  recreational  activities  of  sportsmen 
and  women  from  all  walks  of  life. 

A  necessary  link  between  the  athlete,  the  coach,  and  the  physician, 
the  athletic  trainer  provides  important  services  in  preventing,  treating, 
and  rehabilitating  sports  injuries.  The  trainer's  duties  include  advising  on 
proper  conditioning  techniques  to  help  reduce  injury,  assessing  the  se- 
verity of  injuries  that  do  occur  and  administering  basic  first  aid,  and 
supervising  post-injury  rehabilitation  programs. 

In  general,  athletic  trainers  work  in  organized  sports — either  for  sec- 
ondary school  or  college  athletic  teams  or  for  professional  teams  en- 
in  a  variety  of  sports. 


Description  of  the  Program  The  Health,. Sport,  and  Leisure  Studies 
Department  at  Northeastern  University's  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Hu- 
man Development  Professions  offers  a  bachelor  of  science  program 
designed  specifically  for  students  interested  in  careers  as  athletic  train- 
ers. The  program  can  be  integrated  with  the  Health  and  Physical  Edu- 
cation Teacher  Certification  programs.  These  combinations  of  study  can 
be  especially  valuable  since,  for  example,  many  schools  hire  a  single 
individual  to  be  both  physical  education  or  health  education  teacher  and 
athletic  trainer. 

Students  interested  in  the  Athletic  Training  program  must  be  accepted 
into  Northeastern's  undergraduate  program  in  Physical  Education, 
Health  Education,  or  Cardiovascular  Health  and  Exercise.  At  the  com- 
pletion of  their  first  year  of  study,  they  may  petition  for  acceptance  into 
the  Athletic  Training  program.  To  be  accepted  into  the  program,  stu- 
dents must  have  earned  at  least  a  1.85  quality-point  average  during 
their  first  year.  They  must  continue  to  meet  specified  requirements  to 
remain  in  the  program. 

Certification  Those  who  have  completed  the  Athletic  Training  area  of 
emphasis  with  the  Physical  Education  Teacher  Certification  curriculum 
are  eligible  to  apply  to  the  National  Athletic  Trainers  Association  to  take 
the  certification  examination  and  are  eligible  to  apply  for  certification  as 
teachers  of  physical  education  under  I.C.C.  approval.  Certification  in 
Physical  Education  and/or  Athletic  Training  does  not  guarantee  a  posi- 
tion. 

Accreditation  The  professional  program  in  Athletic  Training  is  accred- 
ited by  the  National  Athletic  Trainers  Association.

Physical  Education  Teacher  Certification 

Description  of  the  Program  The  Teacher  Certification  program  in 
Physical  Education  is  designed  to  offer  students  the  opportunity  to  pre- 
pare themselves  as  professionals  capable  of  developing  the  materials 
and  methods  appropriate  to  teaching  physical  education  in  public  and 
private  schools  at  all  levels — elementary,  secondary,  and  college.  Its 
graduates  may  qualify  as  athletic  coaches,  as  trainers,  supervisors  of 
physical  education,  or  leaders  in  YMCAs,  YWCAs,  health  clubs,  other 
youth  organizations,  or  as  exercise  specialists  in  industry  and  business. 
In  addition  to  a  strong  background  in  general  education,  applied  sci- 
ence, and  pedagogy,  each  student  is  expected  to  demonstrate  a  com- 
petent level  of  knowledge  and  proficiency  in  physical  skills  courses  such 
as  swimming,  gymnastics,  track,  badminton,  tennis,  volleyball,  and  bas- 
ketball. Skill  may  be  demonstrated  through  competency  testing  or  by 
taking  the  appropriate  courses.  Major  students  are  assigned  supervised 
student  teaching  or  field  experiences  in  schools  or  agencies  throughout 
the  Greater  Boston  area  as  appropriate  to  their  areas  of  concentration. 
In  addition,  students  have  the  opportunity  to  increase  their  experience 
with  children  or  adults  through  cooperative  work  assignments  and  in 
pre-practicum  courses.  Physical  Education  majors  are  expected  to 
maintain  a  specific  grade  average  at  each  class  level  (see  the  current 
Student  Handbook).  Fees  may  be  assessed  in  courses  requihng  highly 
specialized  equipment,  supplies,  or  off-campus  facilities. 

Accreditation  The  professional  program  in  Physical  Education  is  ap- 
proved under  the  Interstate  Certification  Compact  (I.C.C). 

Certification  Upon  successful  completion  of  the  Physical  Education 
requirements  for  graduation,  students  are  eligible  to  apply  for  Certifica- 
tion to  teach  in  Massachusetts  public  schools.  Certification  in  Physical 
Education  does  not  guarantee  a  position.

Recreation  and  Leisure  Studies/Outdoor 
Recreation 

Description  of  the  Program  The  Outdoor  Recreation  option  is  de- 
signed to  help  students  understand  the  relationship  between  natural 
physical  environments  and  social  environments,  and  the  interaction  be- 
tween the  two  that  creates  the  recreation  place. 

This  concentration  is  structured  in  accordance  with  three  basic  goals: 
(1)  to  provide  students  with  an  opportunity  to  acquire  an  understanding 
of  elements  of  biology,  geology,  ecology,  facilities  planning,  and  admin- 
istration as  they  relate  to  leisure  in  an  outdoor  setting;  (2)  to  help  stu- 
dents develop  a  variety  of  skills  and  methodologies  to  coordinate  the 
relationships  among  social,  ecological,  and  economic  elements  of  out- 
door recreation  areas:  and  (3)  to  introduce  students  to  the  political  real- 
ities of  the  environment  and  outdoor  recreation  issues. 

A  variety  of  experiential  education  opportunities  supplementing  regu- 
lar course  offerings  are  available  at  the  Warren  Center  of  Northeastern 
University,  a  unique  teaching-learning  laboratory  within  easy  commuting 
distance  of  Boston,  and  through  the  summer  wilderness  program.  Stu- 
dents are  scheduled  for  their  one-week  resident  camp  experience  at  the 
close  of  the  freshman  year  at  the  Warren  Center  in  Ashland,  approxi- 
mately twenty-five  miles  west  of  the  Boston  Campus.  The  lab  fee  for  this 
experience  is  approximately  $165  per  student. 

The  flexibility  of  their  program  enables  graduates  of  the  Outdoor  Rec- 
reation option  to  qualify  for  positions  of  leadership  in  a  variety  of  recre- 
ation areas.  For  example,  graduates  may  become  conservationists, 
working  in  state  or  federal  agencies.  They  may  also  work  as  camp  coun- 
selors and  administrators,  as  activity  coordinators  or  program  planners 
at  parks  and  resorts,  or  in  a  variety  of  social-science  centers.

Recreation  and  Leisure  Studies/Recreation 
Management 

Description  of  the  Program  Students  in  recreation  management  have 
academic  and  work  experiences  which  combine  to  give  them  an  oppor- 
tunity to  develop  strong  general  education  and  marketable  job  skills. 

The  academic  work  emphasizes  the  behavioral  sciences  as  they  ap- 
ply in  leisure  and  managerial  settings.  At  the  end  of  the  freshman  year, 
students  take  an  intensive,  in-residence  program  in  leadership  and  hu- 
man relations  at  the  University's  Warren  Center,  25  miles  west  of  Boston. 

Equally  heavy  emphasis  is  placed  on  developing  a  working  knowl- 
edge of  marketing,  budgeting,  planning,  evaluation,  and  computer  ap- 
plications as  they  apply  to  the  leisure  industry.  The  case  method  of 
teaching  is  widely  used  to  help  students  identify  and  solve  practical 
problems  facing  recreation  organizations  in  the  commercial  and  non- 
profit sectors. 

The  cooperative  education  plan  provides  opportunities  for  profes- 
sional work  experiences  in  health  clubs,  racquet  clubs,  resorts,  tourism 
agencies,  government,  and  nonprofit  agencies.  Further,  a  three  month 
internship  exposes  the  student  to  professional  experience  which  is  not 
usually  possible  in  cooperative  education  jobs. 

The  academic  and  work  experiences  in  recreation  management  are 
designed  to  help  the  student  to  develop  those  skills  most  necessary  to 
obtain  entry  level  management  positions  in  commercial,  government, 
and  nonprofit  recreation.  Students  wishing  to  continue  their  education 
appropriately  seek  admission  to  Master's  of  Business  Administration 
(M.B.A.)  or  Master's  of  Public  Administration  (M.P.A.)  degree  programs.

Recreation  and  Leisure  Studies/Therapeutic 
Recreation 

Description  of  the  Program  The  unique  problems  of  special  needs 
groups  in  our  society  have  recently  become  the  focus  of  intense  study. 
As  our  understanding  of  their  needs  increases,  so  too  does  our  appre- 
ciation of  the  therapeutic  values  associated  with  participation  in  recrea- 
tion activities.  Such  advances  in  knowledge  have  helped  establish 
further  career  opportunities  for  students  interested  in  Recreation  and 
Leisure  Studies. 

Therapeutic  Recreation  specialists  may  be  members  of  health  care 
teams  in  clinical  and  residential  treatment  centers,  or  they  may  serve  as 
advocates  for  disabled  persons  who  live  in  the  community  and  wish  to 
pursue  leisure  activities  independently.  Therapeutic  Recreation  students 
take  courses  in  behavioral  and  social  sciences,  counseling  techniques, 
and  program  planning  for  various  special  needs  populations.  The  Ther- 
apeutic Recreation  concentration  is  designed  to  help  equip  students 
with  the  professional  job  skills  that  are  essential  to  work  with  disabled 
people  in  institutions  and  community-based  settings,  including  hospi- 
tals, rehabilitation  facilities,  nursing  homes,  schools,  and  residential  cen- 
ters as  well  as  day-care  vocational/avocational  centers  in  therapy 
collaboratives.  A  variety  of  experiential  education  opportunities  supple- 
menting regular  course  offerings  are  available  through  ECHO,  Inc.,  (a 
private  camp  affiliated  with  Northeastern  University  serving  disabled 
children  and  their  nondisabled  peers).

School  and  Community  Health  Education 

Description  of  the  Program  Health  Education  is  a  relatively  new 
profession  concerned  with  the  improved  status  of  individual  and  com- 
munity health  through  educational  activities.  While  working  in  a  variety 
of  settings  such  as  volunteer  health  agencies,  public  health  clinics,  ele- 
mentary and  secondary  schools,  or  health-planning  organizations,  the 
health  educator  facilitates  health-promoting  behavior  changes  as  a 
means  to  enriching  the  quality  of  life.  The  health  educator  uses  tech- 
niques and  information  from  both  medical  and  educational  fields  in  order 
to  assist  individuals  and  communities  dealing  with  emotional,  physical, 
or  social  aspects  of  health. 

Since  health  has  psychological,  physical,  and  social  components,  the 
program  of  study  is  organized  to  help  students  develop  an  understand- 
ing of  each  of  these,  as  well  as  their  interaction.  Courses  during  the  first 
part  of  the  program  emphasize  the  foundations  of  health  education  in 
the  social  and  life  sciences.  Practical  experience  in  health  education  is 
included  throughout  the  program  to  provide  the  student  with  an  oppor- 
tunity to  apply  theory  and  techniques  with  Boston  area  groups.  Major 
courses  on  contemporary  health  issues  help  prepare  the  student  to 
understand  the  details  and  complexities  of  several  important  health  top- 
ics. Educational  issues  and  approaches  are  included  in  courses  to  help 
students  understand  the  role  of  education  in  improving  health. 

Overall,  the  program  of  study  is  intended  to  produce  graduates  with 
the  competence  to  assess  the  health  education  needs  of  groups  and  to 
develop,  organize,  and  evaluate  effective  educational  activities. 
Throughout  the  program  of  study,  the  concepts  of  prevention,  health 
promotion,  wellness,  and  holistic  health  serve  as  common  threads  in 
professional  preparation.  The  development  of  specific  competencies  for 
health  education  roles  is  an  objective  of  the  program. 

Certification  Upon  successful  completion  of  the  requirements  for 
graduation  in  School  Health  Education,  students  are  eligible  to  apply  for 
Certification  to  teach  in  the  public  schools  of  Massachusetts.  Certifica- 
tion is  also  readily  obtained  in  other  states  having  certification  reciprocity 
agreements  with  the  Massachusetts  Department  of  Education.  There  are 
no  certification  criteria  for  students  in  Community  Health  Education. 
However,  all  students  must  satisfy  departmental  requirements  before 
being  approved  for  graduation  in  School  and/or  Community  Health  Ed- 
ucation. 

Accreditation  The  professional  program  in  School  Health  Education  is 
accredited  by  the  Interstate  Certification  Compact.

All-University  Electives  in  Health 
Education 

The  program  in  School  and  Connmunity  Health  Education  is  interested  in 
the  health  status  of  the  University  comnnunity.  In  an  attempt  to  meet  the 
health  needs  of  students,  several  elective  courses  are  offered  regularly 
on  selected  health  issues  of  potential  personal  and  professional  interest 
to  any  University  student.  Courses  on  topics  such  as  stress  and  health, 
nutrition,  sexuality,  mental  health,  consumer  health,  drug  use/abuse,  and 
aging  are  designed  to  provide  current  information  and  concepts  related 
to  wellness  and  health  promotion.  Instruction  is  organized  into  lectures, 
discussion  groups,  and  demonstrations  to  provide  students  with  the 
opportunity  to  understand  the  significance  and  application  of  recent 
health-related  research  findings  in  their  own  lives. 

All-University  Elective  Courses  in 
Physical  Education 

A  broad  selection  of  electives  in  dance,  sports,  games,  aquatics,  and 
gymnastics  is  offered  for  all  University  students.  All  classes  are  open  to 
men  or  to  women  with  instructional  modifications  where  appropriate. 

The  elective  program  places  focus  on  the  lifetime  use  of  sports, 
dance,  and  aquatics  for  recreational  satisfaction  and  participation. 
Classes  are  subject  to  cancellation  if  enrollments  are  too  low. 

Dance  Theatre 

The  Northeastern  University  Dance  Theatre  offers  students  interested  in 
dance  as  a  performing  art  the  opportunity  to  choreograph  and/or  per- 
form in  concert.  In  addition  to  an  annual  University  concert  production, 
this  group  presents  several  lecture-demonstrations  and/or  community 
concerts  each  year.  Admission  to  the  dance  group  is  by  audition. 

Intramural  and  Extramural  Sports 

Students  are  provided  the  opportunity  to  participate  in  a  comprehensive 
program  of  intramural  and  extramural  sports  through  clubs,  leagues, 
and  individual  participation.  Separate  leagues  are  organized  for  com- 
muting, dormitory,  and  fraternity  students.  Intramural  sports  are  orga- 
nized separately  for  men  and  women  and,  for  certain  activities,  on  a 
coeducational  basis.  Throughout  the  year,  intramural  and  sports  club 
participation  may  be  possible  in  badminton,  fencing,  football,  golf,  gym- 
nastics, aerobic  dance,  swimming,  volleyball,  water  polo,  and  other 
sports.  A  "drop-in"  program  for  individual  leisure  physical  activity  is  also 
provided. 

Fenway  Project 

Since  1973,  students  in  Recreation  and  Leisure  Studies  have  been  com- 
mitted to  the  Fenway  Project,  providing  meaningful  recreation  services 
and  activities  to  youth  and  adults  living  in  the  Fenway  area,  including 
disabled  adult  residents  at  Symphony  Towers.  Students  participate  as 
activity  planners  and  leaders,  conducting  programs  in  arts  and  crafts, 
coordinating  outings  and  social  events,  as  well  as  Big  Brother/Big  Sister 
programs  and  the  annual  spring  festival.  Northeastern  students  are  en- 
couraged to  participate  in  all  Fenway  Project  activities. 


118/  Boston-Bouve  College 
Recreation  Club 


Organized  by  Recreation  and  Leisure  Studies  nnajors,  the  Recreation 
Club  participates  in  projects  of  student  interest  which  relate  to  depart- 
mental and  professional  concerns  or  issues.  A  newsletter,  issued  to 
students  several  times  a  year,  informs  them  of  upcoming  events  in  the 
department  and  in  professional  organizations.  The  club  also  plans  for 
guest  speakers,  student  workshops,  information  exchange,  orientation 
programs  for  new  students,  and  a  volunteer  service  for  local  programs.

Professional  Preparation 

Alms  The  Department  of  Physical  Therapy  is  dedicated  to  the  prepa- 
ration of  therapists  who  can  provide  services  of  the  highest  quality  in  a 
time  of  changing  concepts,  new  trends,  and  new  challenges.  Students 
will  have  the  opportunities  to  acquire  the  skill  to  help  patients  gain  func- 
tional independence  and  to  learn  to  recognize  and  assist  with  emotional 
and  socioeconomic  problems  that  affect  recovery. 

Description  of  the  Major  Physical  Therapy  is  one  of  the  health  profes- 
sions contributing  to  the  delivery  of  comprehensive  health  care.  The 
physical  therapist  is  highly  skilled  in  evaluation  procedures  and  in  the 
planning  and  execution  of  treatment  programs  appropriate  to  a  patient's 
condition  or  disabilities.  Additional  responsibilities  may  include  health- 
care planning  and  community  service. 

Physical  therapists  are  employed  in  institutions  such  as  general  hos- 
pitals, children's  hospitals,  university  hospitals,  rehabilitation  centers, 
schools  or  centers  for  crippled  children,  nursing  homes,  extended-care 
facilities,  and  community,  state,  and  federal  agencies.  Private  practice 
is  another  option  chosen  by  physical  therapists.  In  addition,  there  are 
increasing  opportunities  in  teaching  and  research  in  physical  therapy. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Major  The  five-year  program  in  Physical  Ther- 
apy, based  on  the  cooperative  plan,  is  unique  in  physical  therapy  edu- 
cation. 

The  program  of  study  integrates  liberal  arts  and  sciences  and  profes- 
sional courses,  with  major  emphasis  on  liberal  arts  in  the  first  two  years 
of  the  program  and  on  professional  preparation  in  the  last  three  years. 
The  professional  courses  include  such  subjects  as  anatomy,  kinesiology, 
pathology,  clinical  medicine,  neurology,  orthopedics,  physiology,  physi- 
cal therapy  procedures,  and  administration,  as  well  as  clinical  experi- 
ence in  various  hospitals  and  clinics. 

Lecturers  from  Tufts  University  School  of  Medicine  and  the  New  Eng- 
land Medical  Center  Hospitals,  as  well  as  from  medical  and  social  agen- 
cies in  the  Boston  area,  augment  the  professional  staff  in  the  Physical 
Therapy  program. 

Supervised  clinical  education  is  a  strong  component  of  the  curriculum 
and  a  requirement  for  graduation.  Clinical  experience  provides  the  stu- 
dent with  opportunities  to  practice  various  phases  of  physical  therapy 
under  supervision  in  preparation  for  qualifying  as  a  physical  therapist. 


120  /  Boston-Bouve  College 

Assignments  in  clinical  education  are  not  confined  to  the  Boston  area. 
They  may  include  physical  therapy  departments  throughout  the  country, 
particularly  in  many  states  along  the  eastern  seaboard. 

Students  admitted  to  the  Department  of  Physical  Therapy  must  main- 
tain acceptable  standards  of  scholarship  and  performance  in  the  pre- 
scribed program.  They  must  also  demonstrate  good  health,  verbal 
fluency,  essential  motor  skills,  and  emotional  maturity;  they  must  com- 
plete all  required  courses  and  have  favorable  evaluations  from  clinical 
education  and  co-op  experience.  To  continue  in  the  program,  students 
are  required  to  maintain  a  grade  of  C  or  better  in  all  professional 
courses,  and  in  all  Basic  Science  prerequisite  courses  listed  in  the  Ac- 
ademic Policy  Statement  of  the  Department  of  Physical  Therapy. 

All  students  interested  in  majoring  in  physical  therapy  should  contact 
the  Department  of  Physical  Therapy  for  information  regarding  depart- 
mental academic  policies  and  procedures. 

Clinical  Education  Students  on  clinical  education  assignments  should 
plan  on  additional  expenses,  including  travel.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  This  major  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  prepare  themselves 
for  possible  careers  in  one  of  the  areas  broadly  defined  as  "human 
services."  The  program  is  interdisciplinary.  The  Human  Services  curric- 
ulum allows  students  to  obtain  the  fundamental  attitudes,  knowledge, 
and  skills  that  can  lead  to  a  meaningful  career  in  the  helping  professions

Students  who  major  in  Human  Services  prepare  themselves  to  per- 
form a  variety  of  functions  in  public  and  private  agencies.  Through 
course  work,  two  quarters  of  fieldwork  experience,  and  possible  co-op 
jobs,  students  have  the  opportunity  to  explore  such  areas  as  casework 
services  in  social  service  and  welfare  agencies;  therapeutic  treatment 
programs  in  mental  health  settings;  supportive  counseling  in  community 
health  centers;  rehabilitation  counseling  services;  sheltered  workshops; 
parole  counseling;  court  liaison  in  programs  for  delinquent  youth;  staff 
work  in  halfway  houses,  penal  institutions,  and  drug  treatment  centers; 
supportive  counseling  for  the  mentally  retarded;  community  organizing; 
services  for  the  aging;  administration  in  human  services  agencies;  and 
social  program  research  and  evaluation. 

Description  of  the  l\/lajor  The  five  basic  aspects  of  this  program  be- 
yond the  college  requirements  are: 

I.  Prerequisite  Courses — Courses  in  the  areas  of  sociology,  psychology, 
economics,  government,  and  human  services. 

II.  Core  Courses — Courses  in  the  areas  of  statistics,  research  methods, 
personality,  abnormal  psychology,  personality  and  social  structure,

or  special  needs. 

IV.  Specializations — Five  courses  that  focus  on  a  student's  area  of  inter- 
est, selected  in  consultation  with  an  adviser.  "Deaf  Studies"  and  other 
structured  specializations  are  being  developed. 

V.  Supervised  Field  Experience — During  the  junior  and  senior  years,  stu- 
dents spend  300  hours  in  supervised  placement  in  public  or  private 
agencies,  usually  in  separate  experiences  of  150  hours  each. 

Note:  Computer  Literacy  must  be  demonstrated  prior  to  graduation.

Human  Services  /  123 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  l\1ajor  The  Human  Services  major  offers  stu- 
dents the  opportunity  to  obtain  useful  values  and  basic  knowledge  relat- 
ing to  various  human  services  fields.  Courses  introducing  some  basic 
skills  can  help  them  to  understand  and  work  with  a  variety  of  helping 
services.

ganization combines  social  and  career-related  activities,  which  in  the 
past  have  included  open  houses,  day-long  conferences,  and  weekend 
retreats.  A  quarterly  Human  Services  Newsletter  is  published  by  stu- 
dents and  faculty.

Professional  Preparation 

The  College  of  Business  Administration  offers  concentrations  in  the  prin- 
cipal fields  of  business:  Accounting,  Entrepreneurship  and  New  Venture 
Management  (Small  Business  Management),  Finance  and  Insurance, 
Human  Resources  Management,  International  Business,  Management, 
Marketing,  and  Transportation  and  Physical  Distribution  Management. 
There  is  also  a  provision  for  those  students  who  wish  to  design  their  own 
concentrations. 

These  programs  are  designed  for  men  and  women  seeking  to  prepare 
themselves  for  managerial  responsibility  in  business,  government,  and 
other  organizations  with  the  goal  of  developing  the  ability  to  recognize 
and  solve  problems  and  to  understand  the  role  of  the  business  firm  in 
the  community,  the  nation,  and  the  world. 

In  developing  these  skills,  the  students  have  the  opportunity  to  gain 
not  only  a  broad  understanding  of  business  and  organizational  problems 
through  specialized  courses,  but  also  firsthand  knowledge  of  effective 
solutions.  Forty  to  sixty  percent  of  the  course  work  in  the  College  of 
Business  Administration  concentrations  is  centered  outside  business  to 
ensure  a  liberal  education. 

All  concentrations  are  offered  only  on  the  five-year  Cooperative  Plan, 
providing  most  students  with  substantial  practical  experience,  usually  in 
the  fields  for  which  they  are  preparing. 

Aims  In  keeping  with  the  current  trends  in  collegiate  education,  the 
College  has  adopted  the  following  educational  aims: 

1 .  To  develop  attitudes  and  ideals  that  are  ethically  sound  and  so- 
cially desirable; 

2.  To  cultivate  an  awareness  of  the  social,  political,  and  economic 
developments  to  which  the  business  firm  must  adapt; 

3.  To  develop  the  habits  of  accurate  thinking  that  are  essential  to 
sound  judgment  and  the  habits  of  accurate  expression  that  are 
essential  to  effective  communication; 

4.  To  provide  an  opportunity  for  students  to  develop  a  specialization 
in  business  in  accordance  with  their  interests  and  talents. 


128  /  College  of  Business  Administration 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Program  The  College  of  Business  Adminis- 
tration offers  a  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Administration  degree 
and  has  concentrations  of  courses  in  several  areas.  The  College  com- 
bines its  business  curriculum  with  courses  from  the  sciences,  humani- 
ties, and  social  sciences.  Students  must  take  courses  in  these  areas  to 
ensure  the  well-rounded  background  that  is  so  valuable  in  the  business 
world. 

All  students  in  the  College  are  required  to  complete,  in  addition  to 
their  academic  courses,  the  program  of  cooperative  education.  This 
program  gives  the  student  the  opportunity  to  challenge  and  reinforce  in 
the  work  place  the  theories  and  techniques  learned  in  the  classroom.  In 
a  similar  way,  the  "well,  that's  the  way  they  do  it  in  my  co-op  company" 
attitudes  can  be  and  are  questioned  in  the  classroom.  This  double- 
faceted  approach  enhances  the  whole  education  process  and  generally 
produces  graduates  with  a  more  realistic  understanding  of  the  work 
place.  Cooperative  work  assignments  generally  are  paid,  full-time, 
professional  positions  with  organizations  both  in  the  profit  and  not-for- 
profit  private  sector  and  in  government.  Work  assignments  are  for  six 
months  of  each  year  above  the  freshman  level. 

After  the  foundation-laying  and  tools-oriented  course  work  (combined 
with  a  large  number  of  nonbusiness  courses)  of  the  first  two  years,  the 
final  three  years  emphasize  the  various  functional  areas  of  business  and 
require  students  to  concentrate  their  studies  in  specific  areas.  (Detailed 
descriptions  of  these  areas  follow  this  section.)  In  most  of  these  upper- 
division  courses  the  traditional  lecture-and-recitation  format  is  supple- 
mented by  problem-solving  and  case-study  methods.  Using  these,  stu- 
dents analyze  actual  businesses  and  business  problems  and  present 
recommendations  for  possible  solutions.  Students  are  encouraged  to 
develop  the  ability  to  think  independently,  to  support  ideas  with  fact  and 
logic,  and  to  analyze  and  challenge  propositions.  The  added  experience 
of  co-op  work  assignments,  when  combined  with  course  work,  offers 
each  student  practical  exposure  to  the  responsibilities  of  various  admin- 
istrative positions  as  well  as  help  in  determining  the  kind  of  organization 
in  which  he  or  she  would  like  to  work.  Special  classrooms  have  been 
designed  for  the  College  to  facilitate  the  case  method  of  instruction. 

During  the  1980s,  the  outlook  for  exciting  careers  in  Business  Admin- 
istration is  optimistic.  The  challenges  that  business  faces  from  the  ef- 
fects of  foreign  policy,  high  technology,  affirmative-action  regulations, 
and  new  economic  policies  tend  to  create  a  demand  for  highly  trained 
individuals  equipped  to  analyze  the  complex  problems  of  our  modern- 
day  economy. 

Upon  completion  of  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Administra- 
tion degree,  the  graduate  may  choose  to  enter  the  work  force  (many 
former  students  have  assumed  full-time  positions  with  former  co-op  em- 
ployers) or  go  on  to  pursue  higher  degrees. 

In  general,  students  find  that  graduate  schools  view  a  B.S.  degree  in 
Business  as  solid  preparation  for  graduate  work,  not  only  in  business 
but  also  in  public  administration,  health-care  administration,  and  edu- 
cation administration.  Law  schools  look  favorably  on  the  prelegal  back- 
ground obtained  in  business  school.  Although  the  Association  of 
American  Law  Schools  does  not  recommend  particular  courses  or  cur- 
ricula for  prelegal  students,  it  does  advise  undergraduates  to  develop 


College  of  Business  Administration  / 1 29 

critical  understanding  of  the  institutions  and  values  witti  which  the  law 
deals.  Many  careers  in  law  are  directly  involved  in  the  business  world, 
either  in  large  corporations  or  in  private  practice. 

The  College's  curriculum  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  develop  a 
broad  understanding  of  the  business  environment,  as  well  as  to  acquire 
the  specific  skills  necessary  to  manage  organizations  in  today's  complex 
social  and  legal  environment. 


Honors  Program 

A  place  in  the  Honors  Program  of  the  College  is  extended  to  juniors  and 
seniors  who,  at  the  end  of  the  first  quarter  of  their  middler  year,  rank  in 
the  top  ten  percent  of  the  class.  These  students  are  given  preference  in 
obtaining  entrance  to  any  of  the  College's  honors  seminars.  They  may 
also  participate  in  a  Senior  Honors  Thesis  Project,  an  independent  re- 
search project  under  the  careful  supervision  and  direction  of  a  faculty 
member. 
The  Honors  Program  was  incorporated  to: 

—  provide  opportunities  to  bring  together  the  best  students  and  faculty 
in  stimulating  courses  and  other  academic  activities; 

—  increase  the  knowledge  and  professional  skills  of  outstanding  stu- 
dents; 

—  enhance  the  employment  or  further  educational  objectives  of  gifted 
students; 

—  develop  increased  respect  in  academic  and  professional  communi- 
ties for  the  College's  students  and  programs;  and 

—  facilitate  course  and  curriculum  experimentation  into  new  and  un- 
charted areas. 

Any  Honors  Program  student  who  completes  twelve  quarter  hours  of 
honors-level  work  at  a  B  average  or  higher  will  receive  special  recogni- 
tion of  this  achievement  on  the  transcript. 

Business  Administration  as  a 
Minor  Course  of  Study 

The  College  of  Business  Administration  faculty,  realizing  that  many  stu- 
dents may  have  an  interest  in  business  yet  major  in  other  disciplines, 
offers  a  Minor  in  Business  Administration.  The  College  of  Arts  and  Sci- 
ences, which  teaches  some  of  the  courses,  collaborated  in  the  design 
of  the  minor. 

The  program  has  been  designed  so  that  students  who  complete  the 
minor  will  gain  a  background  in  disciplines  that  serve  as  foundation 
courses  for  the  study  of  business  and  as  an  exposure  to  its  various 
functional  areas.  In  addition  there  is  an  exploration  of  the  relationship 
between  business  and  society  and  the  obligations  of  each  to  the  other. 

Students  of  the  Basic  Colleges  other  than  Business  Administration 
may  find  the  minor  particularly  attractive  if  they  are  considering  a  career 
in  business  and/or  are  contemplating  enrolling  in  an  MBA  program,  but 
are  not  sure  what  is  involved  in  the  study  of  business.  Qualified  students 
who  have  completed  the  five  background  and  methodology  courses 
apply  for  formal  admission  to  the  minor  after  they  have  accumulated 
eighty  or  more  quarter  hours  of  credit.

Accounting  Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 

Alms  If  you  are  anticipating  a  career  in  accounting,  your  interests 
probably  lie  within  one  of  its  two  nnajor  areas:  industrial  accounting  or 
public  accounting.  To  enable  you  to  obtain  sonne  of  the  professional 
background  necessary  to  enter  these  fields,  the  College  of  Business 
Administration  offers  a  variety  of  financial  accounting  and  nnanagerial 
accounting  courses. 

Preparation  for  a  career  in  accounting  encompasses  a  broad  range 
of  activities.  These  include  all  phases  of  record  keeping,  internal  and 
external  reporting,  financial  planning,  cost  control,  the  design  and  in- 
stallation of  systems  and  procedures,  the  application  of  electronic  and 
other  modern  business  methods  to  these  activites,  and  managerial  de- 
cision making. 

Accounting  is  a  fast-growing  and  cntical  area  of  business.  It  is  an 
exacting  field  that  requires  men  and  women  who  enjoy  dealing  with  facts 
and  figures  as  well  as  with  people.  It  requires  accuracy  and  an  ability  to 
reason  and  to  interpret  business  data. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Concentration  During  your  first  two  years, 
you  will  have  the  opportunity  to  develop  communicative  and  analytical 
abilities,  to  gain  an  understanding  of  the  nature  of  accounting,  and  to 
survey  business  as  a  dynamic  institution  in  an  economic  setting.  Another 
important  activity  will  be  consultation  with  your  coordinator  from  the 
Department  of  Cooperative  Education  about  future  work  assignments. 

Subjects  in  your  third  year  will  include  courses  in  the  various  functional 
areas  of  business  (marketing,  finance,  operations,  personnel),  statistical 
analyses,  and  economic  activity. 

Whether  your  choice  of  employment  is  in  the  industrial  accounting  or 
public  accounting  area,  you  will  have  the  opportunity  to  prepare  through 
specialized  courses  in  your  third  and  subsequent  years.  Subjects  will 
include  cost  accounting,  accounting  theory,  planning  and  control,  audit- 
ing, and  taxes. 

In  addition  to  the  sample  freshman-year  program  and  basic  course 
requirements  listed  on  page  131,  students  who  concentrate  in  account- 
ing are  required  to  take  the  following  courses:

Entrepreneurship  and  New  Venture 
Management  Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  concentration  in  Entrepreneurship  and  New  Venture  Man- 
agement (Small  Business  Management)  offers  students  who  plan  to  op- 
erate their  own  businesses  an  opportunity  to  develop  skills  necessary 
for  the  effective  management  of  small  enterprises. 

Description  of  the  Concentration  Have  you  ever  thought  about  start- 
ing, acquiring,  and  operating  your  own  business?  Will  you  be  faced  with 
an  opportunity  to  join  a  family  business  upon  graduation?  Have  your 
views  of  or  experience  with  large  corporations  made  you  think  about  life 
in  a  smaller  organization?  Or  do  you  think  you  would  get  a  real  kick  out 
of  working  for  a  small  company  and  wish  to  learn  more  about  opportu- 
nities with  smaller  firms? 

Are  you  considering  a  career  in  sales  management,  banking,  public 
accounting,  management  consulting,  or  other  areas  that  may  involve 
you  directly  with  owners  and  managers  of  new  and  small  companies? 
For  example,  a  bank  loan  officer,  sales  manager,  or  CPA  would  often 
have  many  entrepreneurs  and  small-company  officers  as  clients. 

If  your  answer  to  any  of  these  questions  is  yes,  then  you  are  probably 
a  member  of  a  unique  and  growing  portion  of  Northeastern  students  and 
young  people  everywhere  whose  career  definition  of  "doing  your  own 
thing"  encompasses  self-employment  or  work  in  a  small  company  or 
other  organization. 

A  concentration  in  this  field  offers  you  a  thorough  "start-to-finish"  per- 
spective. The  concentration  provides  courses  that  deal  with  each  of 
these  key  questions: 

1 .  What  are  the  characteristics  of  people  who  start  their  own  compa- 
nies, and  what  does  it  take  to  start  and  build  a  new  business? 

2.  What  are  some  key  sources  of  business  opportunities,  and  how 
does  one  assess  the  feasibility  of  a  particular  venture? 

3.  What  sources  exist  for  raising  seed  capital,  and  how  does  one 
acquire  it? 

4.  What  are  the  critical  problems  and  opportunities  in  successfully 
managing  a  smaller  company,  and  what  are  the  appropriate  man- 
agerial methods? 

5.  What  are  the  key  issues  in  financing  and  managing  an  ongoing, 
growing  venture,  and  how  can  these  be  applied  to  small  ven- 
tures? 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Concentration  Courses  in  this  concentration 
benefit  students  in  several  ways.  They  offer  the  opportunity  to  develop 
an  ability  to  assess  personal  aptitude  and  potential  for  small  business, 
to  find  and  evaluate  business  opportunities,  to  secure  adequate  funding, 
and  to  organize  and  manage  the  various  facets  of  the  small  business- 
marketing,  finance,  control,  and  personnel. 

Entrepreneurship  and  New  Venture  Management  presents  students 
with  the  opportunity  to  prepare  for  a  career  in  which  they  can  be  involved 
in  the  management  of  a  business  while  maintaining  a  significant  degree 
of  autonomy  and  independence.  Some  students  will  enter  this  career  at 
graduation  or  sometimes  even  before.  However,  many  find  that  thev 
obtain  their  first  experience  through  cooperative  work  and  postgraduate 
employment  prior  to  establishing  their  own  enterprises.

Finance  and  Insurance  Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  objective  of  the  Finance  and  Insurance  concentration  is  to 
train  students  for  the  financial  management  of  businesses,  nonprofit 
organizations,  and  governmental  units.  Preparation  is  twofold:  students 
are  offered  information  about  current  practices,  theories,  and  concepts 
of  financial  management  and  have  the  opportunity  to  gain  experience  in 
analyzing  situations  that  require  financial  decisions. 

Description  of  the  Concentration  Almost  every  phase  of  economic 
activity  involves  aspects  of  financial  management — of  cash  or  other 
funds  and  of  economic  resources  available  to  the  individual,  the  busi- 
ness, or  other  economic  unit. 

Perhaps  you  can  visualize  your  future  career  in  one  of  the  many  areas 
of  funds  management:  security  analysis,  estate  planning,  corporate  fi- 
nance and  control,  financial  planning,  security  or  insurance  brokerage, 
underwriting,  credit  management,  and  banking.  If  so,  you  should  con- 
sider the  Finance  and  Insurance  Concentration. 

There  are  also  career  possibilities  in  specific  financial  institutions  that 
perform  indispensable  services  for  present-day  business  and  industry. 
Among  these  are  banks,  insurance  companies,  investment  houses, 
credit  concerns,  financial  service  institutions,  mortgage  companies,  and 
national  and  local  real  estate  brokerage  firms  and  appraisers. 

Career  openings  can  be  sought  in  all  areas  of  business,  industry,  and 
government,  where  financial  planning  and  operation  are  vital. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Concentration  As  a  middler,  you  will  take  i 
Introduction  to  Finance  and  beginning  courses  in  other  business  fields. 
Following  the  introductory  course,  your  required  courses  are  Managerial 
Finance,  Investment  Management,  and  Money  and  Business  Activity. 
Besides  these  required  courses,  many  electives  are  available,  including 
Securities  Markets,  Small  Business  Finance,  Management  of  Financial 
Institutions,  and  Insurance.  In  addition,  an  independent  study  often  may 
be  an  appropriate  elective. 

Specialization  occurs  in  your  upperclass  years  as  you  take  advanced    ' 
courses  in  insurance,  investments,  security  markets,  and  basic  business 
finance.  To  provide  you  with  a  well-rounded  education,  other  courses 
are  available,  particularly  in  the  broad  area  of  economics. 

All  courses  offered  by  the  Department  of  Finance  and  Insurance  are  , 
open  to  students  in  any  concentration  provided  they  have  taken  the  |l| 
prerequisite  subjects.  Instructors  may  waive  prerequisite  courses  in  'i 
special  circumstances. 


Finance  and  Insurance  / 135 

Subfields 

Managerial  Finance  The  two  objectives  of  the  finance  function  in  the 
contemporary  corporation  or  business  entity  include: 

1 ,  Providing  needed  funds  on  terms  that  are  the  most  favorable  in 
view  of  current  planning; 

2.  Regulating  the  flow  of  funds  to  maximize  the  realization  of  objec- 
tives. 

The  key  concerns  of  financial  management  are  the  capital  structure 
of  the  business  and  the  optimal  manner  in  which  its  assets  should  be 
held.  With  only  minor  differences,  these  same  broad  objectives  apply  to 
the  finance  function  of  nonprofit  organizations,  including  those  in  the 
public  sector  (units  of  government). 

Management  of  Financial  Institutions  This  area  of  specialization  is 
broadly  based  within  the  subject  area  and  is  applicable  to  a  variety  of 
financial  institutions  and  positions  within  them. 

The  three  major  topics  of  consideration  in  this  area  of  specialization 
are: 

1 .  The  institutional  structure  of  the  financial  system  and  the  relation 
between  it  and  the  surplus  and  deficit  units  of  the  whole  economy; 

2.  Asset,  liability,  and  capital  management  problems  of  financial  in- 
termediaries; 

3.  Investment  analysis  and  portfolio  management  policies  appropri- 
ate to  different  financial  intermediaries. 

Investment  and  Management  Analysis  Two  benefits  result  from 
studying  this  concentration.  First,  students  can  gain  a  general  under- 
standing, which  may  help  them  manage  their  own  affairs.  Second,  those 
seeking  professional  careers  in  organizations  where  the  investment 
function  is  paramount  (industrial  and  utility  corporations,  real  estate  de- 
velopments, financial  institutions,  and  many  governmental  agencies  are 
a  few  examples)  will  find  this  subfield  of  great  assistance. 

The  concentration  offers  preparation  in  the  specialized  skills  and  prin- 
ciples that  can  benefit  students  who  are  interested  in  careers  as  invest- 
ment managers  or  security  analysts  in  the  following  organizations; 

1.  Stock  exchanges,  investment  advisory  firms,  brokers-dealers,  un- 
derwriters, mutual  funds,  and  other  investment  companies  that  are 
a  part  of  the  securities  markets; 

2.  Insurance  companies,  commercial  banks,  savings  and  loan  asso- 
ciations, trust  companies,  mutual  savings  associations,  and  orga- 
nizations involved  in  the  activities  of  the  securities  markets;  or 

3.  Federal  and  state  governmental  agencies  such  as  the  SEC,  FDIC, 
Treasury  Department,  IRS,  and  others  having  regulatory  responsi- 
bilities regarding  the  securities  markets  and  their  participants. 

Insurance  and  Risk  Management  Risk  management  is  the  process 
of  identifying,  measuring,  evaluating,  and  treating  important  risks.  It  is  a 
relatively  new,  but  growing,  part  of  the  management  function  in  business 
as  well  as  in  government  and  other  nonprofit  organizations.  Insurance  is 
an  important  method  of  risk  financing  in  all  organizations,  including  the 
family  unit.  Some  individuals  may  study  one  or  a  few  courses  in  insur- 
ance and  risk  management  to  broaden  their  understanding  of  this  area 


136  /  College  of  Business  Administration 

in  order  to  better  manage  their  personal  affairs  or  to  familiarize  them- 
selves with  this  area  as  part  of  their  general  management  preparation. 
Others  may  wish  to  specialize  in  this  area  and  seek  careers  in  the  risk 
management  function  in  business  as  managers  of  corporate  employee 
benefits  programs;  or  as  managers,  adjusters,  or  underwriters  in  life 
insurance  companies,  property  and  liability  insurance  companies,  insur- 
ance brokerage  firms,  insurance  agencies,  independent  adjusting  firms; 
or  in  a  number  of  other  careers  in  this  vast  field. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  and  the  basic  course  require- 
ments for  the  College  of  Business  Administration  are  the  same  for  all  the 
concentration  areas.  See  page  131.

Human  Resources  Management 
Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 

Alms  Human  resources  management,  which  focuses  on  the  effective 
utilization  of  people  at  work,  is  an  extension  of  personnel  and  labor 
relations  but  includes  more  than  the  traditional  areas  of  recruitment, 
selection,  compensation,  and  training.  A  human  resources  manager  also 
must  be  knowledgeable  about  manpower  planning,  equal  employment 
opportunity  laws  and  affirmative  action  procedures,  organizational  de- 
velopment, career  planning,  job  design  and  motivation,  leadership,  and 
communications.  The  ultimate  goal  of  human  resources  managers  is  to 
provide  an  organization  with  the  people  who  will  be  most  effective  in 
their  jobs. 

Description  of  the  Concentration  In  recent  years  there  has  been  a 
growing  interest  in  the  quality  of  the  employee's  work  life  and  its  relation 
to  the  efficient  production  of  goods  and  services.  Companies  such  as 
Proctor  and  Gamble,  AT&T,  General  Motors,  and  Burlington  Mills,  as  well 
as  a  growing  number  of  organizations  in  the  public  sector,  are  paying 
more  and  more  attention  to  the  quality  of  human  performance  at  work 
and  the  level  of  human  contributions  to  output.  At  a  time  when  financial 
resources  and  investment  capital  are  becoming  scarcer,  many  organi- 
zations are  beginning  to  take  a  closer  look  at  the  management  of  their 
people,  their  most  precious  resource.  In  recognition  of  this  growing  in- 
terest. Northeastern  University's  College  of  Business  Administration  offers 
an  undergraduate  concentration  in  Human  Resources  Management. 
The  effective  management  of  human  resources  calls  for  a  joint  part- 
nership among  such  organizational  specialists  as  personnel  administra- 
tors, labor  relations  negotiators,  wage  and  salary  analysts,  and 
operating  line  managers  in  the  various  functional  areas  (marketing,  fi- 
nance, production)  of  the  company.  As  the  traditional  role  of  personnel 
administration  is  expanded  to  include  affirmative  action  programs,  job 


International  Business  / 137 

enrichnnent,  and  organizational  development  activities,  career  opportu- 
nities in  the  fields  of  labor  relations  and  personnel  administration  are 
likely  to  expand  in  both  the  public  and  private  sectors. 

For  the  student  whose  career  aspirations  lie  in  fields  other  than  per- 
sonnel and  labor  relations,  one  important  point  should  be  made;  human 
resources  management  is  not  a  specialized  activity  confined  to  the  per- 
sonnel department.  Whether  you  start  your  career  as  a  work-flow  analyst 
in  manufacturing,  a  customer  service  assistant  in  marketing,  a  field  au- 
ditor in  the  accounting  department,  or  a  hospital  unit  manager,  you  will 
be  required  to  demonstrate  skills  in  working  with  individuals  and  groups 
to  achieve  desired  results. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Concentration  Human  resources  manage- 
ment IS  practiced  not  only  by  specialists  in  the  area  of  personnel  and 
labor  relations,  but  also  by  line  managers  and  specialists  in  many  other 
business  areas.  The  Human  Resources  Management  concentration  is 
structured  to  expose  students  to  all  major  functions  of  personnel  admin- 
istration and  labor  relations.

International  Business  Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  In  recent  years,  several  factors  have  contributed  to  a  rapidly 
increasing  need  for  qualified  people  in  the  field  of  international  business. 
The  growth  of  multinational  firms,  international  trade,  and  regional  inter- 
national trading  blocs  has  created  a  shortage  of  skilled  managers  who 
are  equipped  to  analyze  the  complexities  of  international  business  prob- 
lems. 

The  International  Business  concentration  offers  students  the  opportu- 
nity to  prepare  themselves  to  meet  these  management  needs.  It  offers 
the  opportunity  to  develop  an  understanding  of  problems  involved  in 
operating  business  enterprises  across  national  boundaries  and  to  de- 
velop the  ability  to  analyze  the  operations  of  businesses  in  multinational 
environments. 

The  curriculum  consists  of  a  broad  education  provided  by  course 
requirements  in  arts  and  sciences,  a  basic  business  education  provided 
by  business  administration  core  requirements,  and  a  specialized  edu- 
cation in  International  Business. 

Description  of  the  Concentration  The  International  Business  concen- 
tration consists  of  six  courses.  Two  of  them  are  required:  Introduction  to 
International  Business  and  Seminar  in  International  Business.  There  are 
also  four  electives:  two  from  the  International  Business  curriculum  and 
two  Business  Electives.  In  addition,  two  of  the  Non-Business  Electives 
must  be  chosen  from  the  International  List  (see  page  139). 


138  /  College  of  Business  Administration 

When  you  enroll  in  the  International  Business  concentration,  you  will 
find  that  its  structure  is  flexible,  permitting  you  to  have  a  dual  concentra- 
tion. For  example,  you  may  concentrate  in  International  Business  and 
use  open  electives  to  fulfill  the  requirement  of  a  second  concentration. 
The  dual  concentration  has  advantages  for  those  seeking  employment 
opportunities  in  traditional  functional  areas  (e.g.,  production,  marketing, 
finance),  which  also  take  place  in  an  international  setting.  All  College  of 
Business  Administration  courses  that  are  offered  as  part  of  the  Interna- 
tional Business  Administration  concentration  are  available  to  students  in 
other  concentrations  during  their  middler,  junior,  and  senior  years. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Concentration  Careers  in  international  busi- 
ness are  best  pursued  in  companies  that  carry  on  trade  or  manufactur- 
ing operations  in  foreign  countries.  An  increasing  number  of 
multinational  firms  require  that  candidates  for  their  top  management 
positions  have  prior  experience  in  international  operations.  In  addition, 
large  banks  and  insurance  companies  want  their  managers  to  under- 
stand international  business.  Other  types  of  organizations — government, 
trade  associations,  large  unions — require  international  business  knowl- 
edge. The  opportunity  for  foreign  travel  in  any  of  these  capacities  is 
frequently  available. 

Students  who  choose  this  concentration  have  the  opportunity  to  gain 
an  understanding  of  the  economic,  political,  and  social  constraints  on 
international  business  and  to  develop  skills  in  analyzing  the  financial, 
marketing,  and  operational  strategies  of  the  multinational  firm. 

Arts  and  Sciences  electives  such  as  modern  languages,  political  sci- 
ence, international  economics,  geography,  and  cultural  anthropology — 
all  appropriate  to  the  understanding  of  international  relations — are  highly 
recommended  to  complement  this  concentration. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  and  the  basic  course  require- 
ments for  the  College  of  Business  Administration  are  the  same  for  all  the 
concentration  areas.  See  page  131 .

Management  Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  Do  your  career  interests  lie  in  the  broad  area  of  administration 
rather  than  in  specialized  fields?  The  Management  concentration  offers 
you  the  opportunity  to  prepare  yourself  for  a  wide  variety  of  administra- 
tive careers  in  business,  government,  and  nonprofit  institutions. 

Description  of  the  Concentration  As  a  Management  student  you 
must  have  a  basic  understanding  of  all  organization  functions:  account- 
ing, marketing,  finance,  and  operations.  Your  courses  in  these  areas 
offer  you  an  overview  of  these  areas,  including  their  interrelation  and  the 
ways  they  can  be  used  as  management  tools.  For  example,  your  study 
of  accounting  can  be  used  as  a  helpful  tool  in  the  decision-making 
process,  rather  than  as  a  specialty  in  itself.  A  similar  approach  is  used 
in  courses  in  other  areas. 


140  /  College  of  Business  Administration 

Since  management  is  the  process  of  getting  things  done  through 
people,  your  professors  pay  significant  attention  to  "people  problems" 
to  stress  the  importance  of  developing  an  effective  work  force. 

The  courses  in  the  Management  concentration  vary  considerably  in 
content  and  method  of  instruction  because  they  vary  in  their  objectives. 
In  most,  students  are  heavily  involved  in  the  conducting  of  classes  and 
are  required  to  work  on  group  assignments.  The  purpose  of  this  partici- 
patory approach  is  to  help  prepare  you  for  the  demands  of  management 
in  the  business  community. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Concentration  The  curriculum  and  teaching 
methods  center  around  the  development  of  basic  skills  and  knowledge 
appropriate  to  administration,  rather  than  upon  specialized  functional 
techniques.  Although  the  case  method  of  study  is  used  extensively,  a 
variety  of  teaching  methods  consistent  with  particular  course  objectives 
are  employed.  The  basic  objectives  of  the  concentration  are  to  confront 
the  student  with  appropriate  learning  expenences,  to  help  increase  stu- 
dents' skills  and  knowledge  in  basic  disciplines  underlying  administra- 
tive practice,  and  to  help  students  develop  judgment  and  skills  in 
organizational  problem  analysis  and  decision  making. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  and  the  basic  course  require- 
ments for  the  College  of  Business  Administration  are  the  same  for  all  the 
concentration  areas.  See  page  180.

Marketing  Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  A  business  organization  not  only  designs  and  manufactures 
products,  but  also  markets  and  sells  them  to  manufacturers,  whole- 
salers, retailers,  and  consumers.  This  is  what  a  concentration  in  market- 
ing is  all  about. 

Description  of  the  Concentration  All  the  business  activities  that  di- 
rect the  flow  of  goods  and  services  from  producer  to  consumer  are 
classified  as  marketing  concerns.  The  marketing  process  begins  by 
determining  the  needs  and  wants  of  customers.  Once  these  wants  and 
needs  are  established,  the  organization's  first  objective  is  to  produce 
goods  or  services  to  satisfy  a  particular  consumer.  Essential  in  all  types 
of  business  are  such  activities  as  product  design,  research,  pricing, 
packaging,  transportation,  advertising,  selling,  and  servicing.  The  over- 
all responsibility  for  these  functions  rests  with  the  marketing  manager. 


Marketing  / 141 

The  Marketing  Concentration  offers  a  wide  variety  of  courses,  taught 
by  lecture  and  class  discussion.  Included  are  such  courses  as  Market- 
ing Management,  Advertising,  Sales  Management,  Consumer  Behavior, 
and  Competitive  Strategy. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Concentration  Outside  the  classroom,  stu 
dents  may  attend  weekly  meetings  of  the  American  Marketing  Associa- 
tion Student  Chapter,  through  which  they  may  further  their  interests  by 
discussing  issues  with  leaders  in  the  field. 

Without  successful  marketing  and  advertising,  industhal  products  re- 
main unsold.  More  and  more  companies  are  finding  that  today's  tempo 
of  progress  and  high  levels  of  production  require  up-to-date  marketing 
techniques  to  generate  a  higher  sales  volume. 

As  members  of  the  management  policy  group,  marketing  executives 
take  a  broad  view  of  all  aspects  of  business  management  and  policy. 
They  also  serve  effectively  as  trained  specialists  in  their  own  areas. 

Success  in  the  market  is  vital  to  every  company,  whatever  its  size. 
Therefore,  the  need  for  adaptable  and  informed  marketing  management 
exists  in  all  types  of  business  and  industry. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  and  the  basic  course  require- 
ments for  the  College  of  Business  Administration  are  the  same  for  all  the 
concentration  areas.  See  page  131 .

Transportation  and  Physical  Distribution 
Management  Concentration 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Transportation  is  an  integral  part  of  national  and  international 
distribution  systems.  It  is  a  determining  factor  in  the  availability  and 
prices  of  goods  and  services  in  our  economy. 

In  corporate  distribution,  transportation  specialists  operate  within  a 
complex  organizational  framework  in  which  goods  are  stored  and 
moved.  Effective  management  of  this  distnbution  process  involves  un- 
derstanding inventory  control,  warehousing,  transportation  options,  and 
the  interaction  of  these  activities  with  other  functional  operations. 

Growing  concern  with  the  economic  and  service  conditions  of  the 
transportation  industry  has  also  created  career  positions  with  govern- 
ment agencies  engaged  in  transportation  policy  development  and  ad- 
ministration. Other  career  possibilities  are  to  be  sought  with  carriers 
such  as  airlines,  railroads,  and  trucking  companies,  which  actively  seek 
people  who  are  familiar  with  the  operational  and  regulatory  aspects  of 
their  business. 


142  /  College  of  Business  Administration 


The  Transportation  and  Physical  Distribution  Management  concentra- 
tion offers  students  opportunities  to  prepare  for  these  diverse  career 
opportunities. 

Description  of  the  Concentration  The  concentration  offers  the  stu- 
dent a  balanced  background  in  Transportation  and  Physical  Distribution 
Management.  Courses  consider  not  only  the  viewpoint  of  the  corporate 
shipper  and  carriers,  but  also  those  of  public  officials,  in  addition  to 
consumer  interests.  Courses  have  a  strong  contemporary  orientation 
and  promote  frequent  interaction  with  practitioners  from  business  and 
government. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Concentration  Course  offerings  in  Transpor- 
tation and  Physical  Distribution  Management  are  sequential  so  that  stu- 
dents who  desire  only  an  introductory  exposure  may  take  one  or  several 
courses  as  part  of  a  broader  business  background.  An  undergraduate 
concentration  in  the  area  consists  of  six  courses.  Four  are  required 
courses,  with  the  balance  of  the  concentration  composed  of  eiectives. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  and  the  basic  course  require- 
ments for  the  College  of  Business  Administration  are  the  same  for  all  the 
concentration  areas.  See  page  131.

Professional  Preparation 

The  College  of  Computer  Science  offers  students  the  opportunity  to 
concentrate  in  the  broad  field  of  computer  science.  The  program  is 
designed  for  men  and  women  who  are  seeking  to  prepare  themselves 
for  productive  careers  in  industry,  government,  or  other  organizations 
that  design,  develop,  market,  or  utilize  computing  systems.  A  fundamen- 
tal goal  of  the  College  is  to  help  students  develop  the  ability  to  recognize 
and  solve  problems  arising  in  the  use  of  modern  digital  computers  in 
business  and  engineering  as  well  as  in  educational  and  research  envi- 
ronments. 

In  developing  the  skills  necessary  to  achieve  this  goal,  the  student 
has  the  opportunity  to  assimilate  ideas  and  concepts  from  theoretical 
studies;  in-depth,  hands-on  programming  of  both  large  time-sharing 
systems  and  single-user  microcomputers;  and  practical  insight  gained 
from  the  cooperative  education  experience. 

The  concentration  in  Computer  Science  is  offered  primarily  on  the  five- 
year  Cooperative  Plan  because  of  the  inherent  value  of  experience 
gained  in  an  actual  computer-oriented  working  environment. 

Aims  Recognizing  that  the  advance  of  technological  innovation  casts 
the  computer  in  ever-widening  roles  and  brings  the  concept  of  the  "in- 
formation society"  closer  to  reality,  the  College  has  adopted  the  following 
aims:

1 .  To  understand  the  scientific  principles  that  serve  as  the  founda- 
tion of  computer  science; 

2.  To  develop  the  habits  of  accurate  thinking  that  are  essential  to  the 
description  and  efficient  analysis  of  computer-related  problems; 

3.  To  cultivate  an  awareness  of  the  common  features  and  mathemat- 
ical bases  of  a  wide  variety  of  computational  issues  arising  in  ap- 
parently unrelated  information-processing  applications; 

4.  To  communicate  ideas  and  approaches  in  a  clear  and  concise 
manner  in  a  style  appropriate  to  the  audience; 

5.  To  maintain  an  adequate  awareness  of  the  pace  of  information 
technology  in  order  to  lead  innovation  rather  than  follow  it. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Program  Although  students  of  computer  sci- 
ence concern  themselves,  on  the  surface,  with  the  languages  used  in 
writing  computer  programs,  their  involvement  in  the  study  of  software 
design  goes  much  deeper.  Students  have  the  opportunity  to  study  the 
application  of  computers  to  many  fields  and  to  consider  various  ap- 
proaches to  storing  maximal  amounts  of  information  in  a  system's  stor- 
age devices  while  minimizing  the  time  it  takes  to  retrieve  that  information. 
How  to  select  the  best  computer  system  for  a  particular  application  is  of 
concern.  Since  errors  can  accumulate  in  computer  calculations,  com- 
puter science  students  are  also  expected  to  study  ways  in  which  such 
errors  can  be  detected  and  minimized.  A  newly  emerging  topic  is  the 
methodology  of  program  structure  and  design — a  concern  directed  at 
determining  the  best  approach  to  organizing  large  problems  so  that  the 
chance  for  error,  the  difficulty  of  detecting  an  error,  and  the  cost  of 
correcting  an  error  are  minimized. 

The  Computer  Science  Program  is  designed  in  accordance  with  the 
recommendations  of  two  large,  national  professional  societies — the  As- 
sociation for  Computing  Machinery  and  the  Mathematics  Association  of 
America.  It  offers  a  well-rounded  and  flexible  program  in  which  students 
are  expected  to  fulfill  certain  minimum  course  requirements  but  are  pro- 
vided an  unusually  wide  selection  of  electives  from  which  to  choose.  In 
this  way,  students  have  the  chance  to  plan  a  program  of  study  according 
to  the  particular  fields  of  computer  applications  most  interesting  to  them. 

On  balance,  the  program  offers  a  strong  foundation  in  mathematics 
and  a  variety  of  program  design  and  analysis  courses.  The  requirement 
for  seven  quarters  of  social  science/humanities  electives  provides  op- 
portunity for  students  to  broaden  their  horizons  and  to  obtain  a  cultural 
context  in  which  to  imbed  the  technical  concepts  of  computer  science.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Established  in  1966  under  a  grant  from  the  Ford  Foundation,  the 
College  of  Criminal  Justice  offers  its  students  the  opportunity  to  prepare 
for  professional  careers  in  the  fields  of  criminal  justice  and  private  se- 
curity; through  its  prelegal  studies  concentration,  many  students  also 
prepare  for  entry  to  law  school.  The  curriculum  has  been  designed  to 
offer  students  a  broad  academic  foundation  upon  which  to  base  a 
professional  concentration  of  courses  that  introduce  students  to  specific 
career  areas.  Legal  studies,  law  enforcement,  private  security,  correc- 
tions, probation  and  parole,  and  forensic  science  are  some  of  the  areas 
of  interest  pursued  by  students.  It  is  also  expected  that  a  number  of 
graduates  will  choose  advanced  study  in  academic  fields  such  as  crim- 
inology, forensic  science,  social  work,  public  administration,  private  se- 
curity, and  law,  as  well  as  in  the  entire  area  of  criminal  justice. 

The  College  was  founded  to  help  prepare  students  to  enter  profes- 
sions that  deal  with  some  of  the  most  important  social  issues  of  our 
times.  To  deal  with  these  issues  and  to  help  prepare  graduates  for 
careers  that  are  rewarding  and  beneficial,  innovative  methods  and 
ideas,  as  well  as  the  most  advanced  thinking,  are  utilized  by  the  College 
of  Criminal  Justice.  As  a  reflection  of  its  significant  role  in  higher  educa- 
tion, the  College  has  received  substantial  grants  from  the  Department  of 
Justice  and  was  designated  both  as  a  training  center  in  criminal  justice 
and  as  a  center  of  education  and  innovation  in  the  field  of  criminal  justice 
and  forensic  science. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Program  The  College  of  Criminal  Justice 
offers  a  five-year  academic  program  on  the  Cooperative  Plan  of  Educa- 
tion, which  allows  a  candidate  for  the  baccalaureate  degree  to  under- 
take a  specialized  program  of  study.  It  is  anticipated  that  co-op 
assignments  may  include  work  in  Parole  or  Probation  Offices,  law  firms, 
police  departments,  private  security  agencies,  public  or  private  institu- 
tions, social  agencies,  prisons,  planning  and  evaluation  units,  or  other 
areas  related  to  the  criminal  justice  program. 


152  /  College  of  Criminal  Justice 

Students  are  offered  a  broad  educational  background  for  future  roles 
in  criminal  justice,  private  security,  or  law.  Because  students  are  prepar- 
ing for  careers  involving  the  social  problems  of  people  from  all  walks  of 
life,  course  work  in  the  social  sciences,  behavioral  sciences,  and  the 
humanities  is  integrated  with  professional  courses.  The  liberal  content  of 
the  curriculum  is  highly  desirable  not  only  for  its  value  as  a  foundation 
upon  which  general  intellectual  development  may  be  based,  but  also  as 
an  indispensable  educational  requirement  for  professional  develop- 
ment. 

Graduates  must  be  prepared  to  judge  objectively  the  many  socioeco- 
nomic problems  inherent  in  the  administration  of  justice  in  contemporary 
American  society.  The  College  of  Criminal  Justice  helps  to  prepare  stu- 
dents for  careers  that  will  be  not  only  personally  productive  and  reward- 
ing, but  intellectually  stimulating  as  well. 

Graduation  Requirements 

Candidates  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  must  complete  ail  the 
prescribed  work  of  the  curriculum,  a  total  of  1 72  quarter  hours  of  credit. 

Students  who  undertake  the  Cooperative  Education  Program  must 
meet  the  requirements  of  the  Department  of  Cooperative  Education  be- 
fore they  become  eligible  for  their  degrees. 

No  student  transferring  from  another  college  or  university  is  eligible  to 
receive  a  degree  until  at  least  one  year  of  academic  work  immediately 
preceding  graduation  has  been  completed  at  Northeastern. 

Graduation  with  Honors 

Candidates  who  have  achieved  superior  grades  in  their  academic  work 
will  be  graduated  cum  laude.  Upon  special  vote  of  the  faculty,  a  limited 
number  of  this  group  may  be  graduated  magna  cum  laude  or  summa 
cum  laude.  Students  must  have  been  in  attendance  at  the  University  for 
at  least  six  academic  quarters  before  they  become  eligible  for  honors  at 
graduation.

Professional  Preparation 

The  College  of  Engineering  prepares  students  to  participate  construc- 
tively in  a  technologically  changing  world,  thus  contributing  as  profes- 
sional engineers  to  the  accumulation  and  application  of  new  knowledge. 
Fundamentals  are  emphasized,  thus  offering  students  the  opportunity  to 
obtain  the  basic  technical  knowledge  necessary  to  practice  in  a  variety 
of  positions.  At  the  same  time,  study  of  the  social  sciences  and  human- 
ities provides  an  awareness  of  the  social,  economic,  political,  aesthetic, 
and  philosophical  influences  that  are  part  of  the  context  in  which  stu- 
dents will  practice  their  professions. 

Aims    The  concept  of  education  as  a  continuing,  lifelong  process  nec- 
essary for  effective  work  in  an  environment  of  constantly  new  facts, 
ideas,  and  scientific  principles  underlies  the  structure  of  the  engineering 
curriculum. 
Engineering  education  is  directed  toward  assisting  students  to: 

1 .  Understand  the  scientific  principles  and  knowledge  of  the  particu- 
lar branch  of  engineering  selected; 

2.  Comprehend  and  develop  competence  in  the  engineering 
method  and  its  application; 

3.  Communicate  effectively  and  succinctly  the  important  results  of 
any  technical  study  both  verbally  and  graphically; 

4.  Acquire  the  motivation  for  continuing  professional  growth. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Program 

The  College  of  Engineering  offers  five-year  cooperative  programs  in 
Chemical,  Civil,  Electrical,  Industrial,  and  Mechanical  Engineering  lead- 
ing to  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Science  with  specification  according  to 
the  engineering  department  in  which  the  student  qualifies.  The  College 
also  offers  a  General  Engineering  Program,  which  leads  to  the  awarding 
of  an  unspecified  Bachelor  of  Science  degree,  through  which  students 
have  the  opportunity  to  design  a  curriculum  suited  to  their  objectives. 
The  various  curricula  offer  students  the  opportunity  to  prepare  effectively 
for  employment  in  industry  or  postgraduate  study. 

The  undergraduate  program  begins  with  three  quarters  of  full-time 
study.  Course  work  during  the  first  year  helps  to  build  students'  under- 
standing of  mathematics  and  the  physical  sciences  and  to  improve  their 
ability  to  communicate  ideas  both  verbally  and  graphically. 

The  freshman  courses  act  as  a  foundation  for  upperclass  studies. 
They  assist  students  in  developing  a  basic  understanding  of  concepts 
in  the  engineering  sciences  and  introduce  them  to  the  engineering 
method  and  its  application.  About  four-fifths  of  the  upperclass  program 


156  /  College  of  Engineering 

is  devoted  to  scientific  and  technological  study,  and  about  one-fifth  to 
humanistic-social  courses,  with  the  aim  of  balancing  the  students'  grow- 
ing technical  proficency  with  an  appreciation  of  the  nontechnical  as- 
pects of  society  and  culture. 

Cooperative  work  in  the  chosen  branch  of  engineering  begins  upon 
completion  of  the  freshman  year  and  continues  throughout  the  remaining 
upperclass  years.  The  work  assignments  during  this  time  may  be  most 
valuable  in  helping  to  integrate  the  important  elements  of  both  an  engi- 
neering and  a  liberal  arts  education.  They  can  also  be  instrumental  in 
teaching  the  value  of  teamwork  and,  at  the  same  time,  helping  the  stu- 
dent to  acquire  insight  into  the  problems  of  actual  engineering  practice. 

Five- Year  B.S.-M.S.  Programs 

Several  departments  (Electrical  and  Computer,  Industrial  Engineering 
and  Information  Systems,  and  Mechanical)  offer  programs  leading  to 
both  the  Bachelor's  and  Master's  degrees  in  five  years.  Students  with 
outstanding  academic  records  (3.0  or  better)  may  carry  extra  courses 
and  in  the  senior  year,  forego  one  cooperative  work  quarter  to  complete 
the  course  requirements  for  both  degrees. 

Part-Time  Program  Offered 
During  Evening  Hours 

The  College  of  Engineering  also  offers  a  six-year,  part-time  curriculum 
leading  to  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Civil,  Electrical,  or  Me- 
chanical Engineering  .  Classes  are  held  in  the  evening.  Admission  and 
course  requirements  are  the  same  as  for  the  five-year  cooperative  de- 
gree programs.  For  further  information,  consult  the  evening  bulletin  of 
the  College  of  Engineering,  or  call  the  College's  Office  of  Student  Ser- 
vices at  437-2154. 

Computer  Facilities 

The  College  provides  students  with  ample  computer  facilities  to  support 
coursework  and  research  activities.  These  facilities  include  a  Digital  VAX 
11/785  system  with  32  student  terminals;  a  Data  General  MV/8000  with 
30  student  terminals;  a  Computervision  Computer-Aided  Design  and 
Manufacturing  (CAD/CAM)  system  with  eight  advanced  workstations; 
and  33  IBM  XTs  in  a  local  area  network  to  support  computer  graphics 
and  design  courses.  In  addition,  the  university  computer  center  provides 
60  terminals  for  two  VAX  1 1 /780s  and  40  networked  IBM  PCs  for  student 
use. 

The  departments  provide  a  variety  of  mini-  and  micro-computer  facili- 
ties to  support  special  coursework  and  research. 

Graduation  Requirements 

Degrees  The  College  awards  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in 
Chemical,  Civil,  Electrical,  Industrial,  and  Mechanical  Engineering,  as 
well  as  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  without  specification. 

Qualification  for  Degrees  Candidates  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science 
degree  must  complete  all  of  the  prescribed  work  of  the  curriculum  in 
which  they  seek  to  qualify  with  no  academic  deficiencies.  Students  who 
undertake  cooperative  work  assignments  must  complete  a  minimum  of 
four  quarters  of  cooperative  work  experience  approved  by  the  Depart- 
ment of  Cooperative  Education. 

Students  transferring  from  another  college  or  university  are  not  eligible 
to  receive  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  until  they  have  completed  at 
least  one  academic  year  at  Northeastern  immediately  preceding  their 
graduation.  ^

Accreditation 

All  undergraduate  day  programs  with  specification,  offered  solely  by  the 
College  of  Engineering,  as  well  as  the  part-time  evening  programs  in 
Civil,  Electncal,  and  Mechanical  Engineering  are  accredited  by  the  En- 
gineering Accreditation  Commission  of  the  Accreditation  Board  for  En- 
gineering and  Technology  (ABET)  (formerly  the  Engineer's  Council  for 
Professional  Development). 

Women  in  Engineering 

More  women  are  entering  the  field  of  engineering  each  year  as  career 
opportunities  expand.  Industry  and  government,  now  aware  of  the 
largely  untapped  pool  of  qualified  women  are  eager  to  provide  positions 
for  competent  women  engineers.  Any  woman  with  scientific  or  technical 
interests  should  consider  the  many  possibilities  offered  in  engineering. 

Approximately  500  undergraduate  women  are  currently  enrolled  in  the 
college.  The  Women  in  Engineering  Program  Office  maintains  an  inter- 
active data  base  for  academic  support  and  networking.  An  active  chap- 
ter of  the  Society  of  Women  Engineers  offers  a  full  schedule  of  technical 
and  professional  programs. 

Minorities  in  Engineering 

Through  the  Northeastern  University  Progress  in  Minorities  in  Engineer- 
ing (NUPRIME)  program,  the  College  seeks  to  expand  educational  op- 
portunities for  qualified  blacks,  Puerto  Ricans,  Mexican-Amencans,  and 
Native  Americans.  It  provides  scholarships  based  on  merit  or  need. 
Every  effort  is  made  to  provide  enough  aid  so  that  outside  work  is  not 
necessary  during  the  freshman  year.  Advising  and  tutorial  services  are 
among  the  support  services  provided  by  the  program.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Chemical  engineering  involves  the  design,  construction,  opera- 
tion, and  management  of  processes  in  which  materials  essential  to  so- 
ciety are  produced.  The  goal  of  the  chemical  engineer  is  to  develop 
processes  which  use  resources  most  efficiently,  economically,  and 
safely  in  an  environmentally  sound  manner. 

Since  the  field  of  chemical  engineering  is  so  varied,  the  program  of 
study  has  been  designed  to  offer  students  broad  training  in  which  fun- 
damental principles  are  stressed,  providing  them  with  the  strong  back- 
ground needed  to  acclimate  themselves  readily  to  graduate  school  or  to 
an  industry  of  their  choice.  The  basic  scientific  and  engineering  knowl- 
edge in  the  program  provides  the  graduate  with  the  skills  needed  to 
respond  to  rapidly  changing  technologies  in  the  future. 

Description  of  Chemical  Engineering  The  chemical  engineer  has 
been  defined  as  a  "professional  experienced  in  the  design,  construction, 
and  operation  of  plants  in  which  materials  undergo  chemical  and  phys- 
ical change."  It  is  the  task  of  the  chemical  engineer  to  reduce  the  costs, 
increase  the  production,  improve  the  quality  of  existing  products,  and 
develop  new  products.  Chemical  engineering  has  grown  out  of  discov- 
eries in  chemical  laboratories  which  have  served  as  a  foundation  for  a 
great  many  new  industries  whose  production  processes  involve  chemi- 
cal as  well  as  physical  changes. 

The  petrochemical,  biomedical,  pharmaceutical,  agricultural  chemi- 
cals, food  processing,  plastics  and  synthetic  fibers,  energy  and  syn- 
thetic fuels,  and  waste  management  areas  require  men  and  women 
trained  in  chemistry  as  well  as  in  engineering.  Many  older  industries 
such  as  pulp  and  paper,  metals  and  glass  production,  paints  and  coat- 
ings, textiles  and  electroplating  are  also  employing  chemical  engineers. 
Computerized  process  controls  are  being  designed  to  improve  the  effi- 
ciency of  older  plants  and  computer-aided  design  of  new  plants  is  be- 
coming increasingly  common. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Program  The  essential  background  for 
chemical  engineers  is  derived  from  the  fundamental  courses  in  chemis- 
try, mathematics,  and  physics,  required  of  all  engineering  students.  Stu- 
dents then  go  on  to  advanced  courses  which  apply  these  fundamentals 
to  the  solution  of  engineering  problems.  These  upperclass  courses  skill- 
fully blend  the  latest  mathematical  and  theoretical  analyses  with  the 
practical  aspects  of  the  profession. 

Chemical  engineering  is  a  rapidly  broadening  field.  Tremendous 
growth  in  research  and  development  is  occurring  in  a  wide  variety  of 
areas.  Students  are  provided  the  opportunity  to  pursue  specialized  ca- 
reer interests  through  minors,  such  as  a  minor  in  biology,  and  through 
technical  electives. 


Chemical  Engineering  /  159 

Laboratories 

Selected  courses  in  the  curriculum  contain  laboratory  sessions  that  sup- 
plement the  presentation  of  material  in  lectures.  These  sessions  are 
devoted  to  practice  in  problem  formulation  and  solution  including  the 
use  of  computers  and  standard  software  packages.  The  senior  course 
in  process  design  is  largely  taught  in  laboratory  sessions,  with  major 
emphasis  on  computer-aided  design  and  simulation 

The  research  laboratories  are  designed  to  acquaint  the  student  with 
the  experimental  approach  to  the  solution  of  engineering  problems  and 
to  develop  research  interests.  Graduate  research  may  be  conducted  in 
such  areas  as  energy,  pollution  control,  catalysis,  polymers,  process 
control,  mathematical  modeling,  and  computer  applications. 

Students  are  first  exposed  to  the  basic  measurements  in  engineering 
in  experimental  methods  laboratories,  with  emphasis  on  temperature, 
pressure,  and  flow  rate.  Following  this,  they  are  given  problems  involving 
such  areas  as  transport  properties,  kinetics',  thermodynamics,  and  pro- 
cess dynamics,  which  they  must  solve  experimentally.  They  are  required 
to  design  and  conduct  the  experiment,  reduce  the  data  using  comput- 
ers, and  write  a  final  report.  Students  use  pilot-scale  chemical  engineer- 
ing equipment  in  the  experiment,  when  applicable.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  A  major  aim  of  the  Civil  Engineering  Department  is  to  provide 
students  with  the  opportunity  to  acquire  a  fundamental,  flexible,  yet  rig- 
orous engineering  education  so  that,  in  view  of  inevitable  change  within 
the  field,  graduates  will  be  in  a  position  to  build  continuously  on  their 
basic  knowledge.  A  wide  range  of  electives  in  the  humanities,  social 
sciences,  and  basic  sciences  encourages  students  to  investigate  areas 
outside  their  specific  technical  focus  and  to  extend  their  personal  inter- 
ests and  involvements. 

Description  of  Civil  Engineering  Civil  Engineering  is  the  profession 
in  which  a  knowledge  of  the  mathematical  and  physical  sciences  gained 
by  study,  experience,  and  practice  is  applied  with  judgment  to  develop 
ways  to  utilize,  economically,  the  materials  and  forces  of  nature  for  the 
progressive  well-being  of  mankind.  Civil  engineers  improve  and  protect 
the  environment;  provide  facilities  for  community  living,  industry,  and 
transportation;  and  provide  structures  for  the  use  of  mankind.  The  build- 
ings people  live  and  work  in,  transportation  systems,  city  and  town  ser- 
vices, water  supply — all  reflect  creative  planning  and  application  of 
engineering  principles  on  the  part  of  civil  engineers. 

Civil  engineers  measure  and  map  the  earth's  surface  and  utilize  these 
maps  to  locate  their  projects.  They  design  and  supervise  the  construc- 
tion of  bridges,  tunnels,  buildings,  dams,  and  aqueducts.  They  build 
supporting  foundations  for  these  and  other  structures.  Civil  engineers 
plan,  design,  construct,  and  maintain  highways,  railroads,  canals,  and  \ 
airports.  They  regulate  rivers  and  control  floods;  build  docks,  pipelines, 
sea  walls;  develop  harbors;  design  and  build  plants  and  systems  to 
bring  pure  water  to  homes  and  factories;  design  and  build  systems  for 
sewage  and  refuse  disposal;  drain  swamps  and  irrigate  arid  areas

Civil  Engineering/ 161 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Program  The  five-year  study  curriculum  is 
divided  into  eleven  quarters  of  school  and  eight  quarters  of  cooperative 
work  assignments.  The  work  phase  is  designed  to  allow  the  student  to 
gain  insight  into  all  types  of  activity  normally  confronted  by  the  civil 
engineer.  Thus,  the  well-motivated  student  can  determine  from  these 
work  experiences  what  further  course  work  preparation  will  be  required 
to  become  successful  as  a  practicing  civil  engineer.  The  work  expen- 
ence  also  may  be  valuable  in  stimulating  a  certain  amount  of  self-sup- 
port and  independence. 

The  first  years  of  the  curriculum  are,  for  the  most  part,  devoted  to  the 
fundamentals  of  math,  basic  sciences,  and  engineering  that  comprise 
the  foundation  for  later  professional  studies.  The  final  years  are  devoted 
to  a  range  of  professional  subjects,  both  required  and  elective.  Guid- 
ance from  a  faculty  adviser  is  available  throughout  the  academic  pro- 
gram. 

The  curriculum  is  thus  intended  to  offer  a'firm  educational  background 
for  students  preparing  for  a  career  in  the  planning,  design,  and  con- 
struction of  structures,  transportation  systems,  and  environmental  sys- 
tems as  civil  engineers. 

Upon  completion  of  the  requirements  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in 
Civil  Engineering  degree,  the  graduate  may  choose  to  enter  the  engi- 
neering profession  or  to  go  on  to  graduate  school  for  advanced  training. 
The  beginning  civil  engineer  will  probably  find  that  graduate  course  work 
is  a  prerequisite  for  advancement. 

During  the  first  period  of  employment  as  a  graduate,  the  civil  engineer 
may  expect  to  spend  some  time  in  the  field  or  the  office  in  work  involving 
design  computations,  layout  work  and  supervision  of  construction,  or 
obtaining  and  analyzing  information  for  studies  and  reports.  With  in- 
creased experience,  the  graduate  will  be  better  prepared  to  take  on 
greater  challenges  and  more  responsibilities. 

Graduates  normally  seek  employment  in  municipal,  state,  and  federal 
agencies  as  well  as  in  private  consulting  practice,  general  construction, 
and  industry. 

Environmental  Option  This  option  is  designed  for  engineering  stu- 
dents intending  to  work  in  the  field  of  environmental  protection  and 
improvement.  Topics  included  at  the  undergraduate  level  are  water  sup- 
ply, treatment  and  wastewater  disposal,  solid  waste  disposal,  and  air 
pollution.  The  cooperative  program,  leading  to  a  bachelor's  degree  in 
civil  engineering  in  five  years,  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  imme- 
diately enter  a  professional  practice  in  government  agencies,  industry, 
or  private  consulting  firms,  depending  on  the  job  market  as  well  as  their 
own  industry  and  abilities. 

Part-Time  Program 

The  Civil  Engineering  Program  is  also  available  on  a  part-time  basis.  The 
classes  are  scheduled  during  the  evening  hours,  usually  two  evenings 
per  week.  The  curriculum  can  be  completed  in  a  minimum  of  six  years. 

Student  Professional  Society 

Our  Student  Chapter  of  the  American  Society  of  Civil  Engineers  is  a  very 
active  and  professional  organization  and  participation  in  its  activities  has 
proven  to  be  a  unique  complement  to  Northeastern's  traditional  class- 
room and  co-op  experience.  In  addition  to  traditional  activities,  which 
include  sponsoring  a  weekly  professional  lecture  series  and  occasional 


162  /  College  of  Engineering 

field  trips  to  civil  engineering  construction  sites  and  constructed  facili- 
ties, mennbers  have  successfully  completed  several  significant  commu- 
nity-service projects  valued  at  approximately  a  quarter  of  a  million 
dollars. 

The  students  have  developed  and  designed  innovative  and  educa- 
tional outdoor  play  exhibits  illustrating  both  natural  and  man-made  phe- 
nomena for  the  Children's  Museum  of  Boston.  They  have  worked  with 
staff  members  of  the  Joseph  P.  Kennedy,  Jr.,  Memorial  Hospital  for  Chil- 
dren in  the  planning,  design,  financing,  and  construction  of  a  special 
playground  for  handicapped  children.  They  have  designed  and  con- 
structed an  outdoor  amphitheater  for  the  Salvation  Army's  Camp  Won- 
derland, and  performed  an  investigation  of  fire  evacuation  procedures 
and  building  modifications  for  the  Cotting  School  for  the  Handicapped. 
The  students  have  designed  and  constructed  a  play-therapy  center  for 
Boston  Children's  Services  Association  and  a  unique  play  area  for  the 
Language  and  Cognitive  Development  Center.  They  financed,  de- 
signed, and  constructed  a  children's  group  therapy  facility  with  indoor 
and  outdoor  components  for  the  Brookline  Mental  Health  Clinic.  Last 
year.  Student  Chapter  members  financed,  designed,  and  constructed  a 
new  wing  for  Waltham  Hospital's  Early  Intervention  Program  facility.  Each 
year,  at  least  one  such  community-service  project  is  undertaken. 

In  recognition  of  these  unusual  efforts,  our  Student  Chapter  has  been 
designated  as  the  "single  most  outstanding"  chapter  in  the  nation  and 
consequently  has  received  the  Robert  Ridgway  Award  of  the  American 
Society  of  Civil  Engineers  for  an  unprecedented  seven  out  of  eight  years 

Computer  Facilities 

The  Civil  Engineering  Department  uses  a  vanety  of  computer  facilities  to 
complement  course  work  and  research.  The  department  has  two  mini- 
computers (a  Hewlett-Packard  System  45  with  interactive  graphics  and 
a  Digital  LSI-11)  for  laboratory  data  acquisition.  In  addition,  Civil  Engi- 
neering also  has  a  microcomputer  facility  consisting  of  IBM  personal 
computers,  Apple  lis  and  MAC  8s.  All  systems  are  supported  with  so- 
phisticated software  packages  with  applications  to  all  disciplines  of  civil 
engineering. 

Laboratories 

The  Civil  Engineering  Department  is  located  in  a  new,  modern  building 
providing  expanded  and  enhanced  laboratory  facilities. 

Soil  Mechanics  Laboratory  The  soils  laboratory  is  equipped  to  per- 
form the  full  spectrum  of  soil  tests,  as  well  as  to  conduct  model  studies. 

A  wide  variety  of  laboratory  equipment  permits  students  to  perform 
tests  ranging  from  those  related  to  soil  classification  to  sophisticated 
triaxial  tests  to  evaluate  the  stress-strain  properties  of  a  soil  specimen. 
The  triaxial  tests  can  be  of  strain-controlled  loading,  stress-controlled 
loading,  or  a  combination  thereof.  Pore-pressure  measurements  are 
made  either  electronically  with  pressure  transducers  or  manually  with 
null-pressure  indicators. 

Consolidation-test  equipment  of  various  load  ranges  and  types  is 
available.  Consolidation  tests  applying  loads  up  to  50  tsf  on  the  sample 
are  possible.  The  laboratory  is  equipped  with  a  wide  range  of  electronic 
devices,  including  pressure  transducers,  load  cells,  and  accelerometers 
to  expedite  data  collection. 


Civil  Engineering  / 163 

Research  with  the  aid  of  models  can  be  conducted  to  study  the  prob- 
lems associated  with  the  design  and  construction  of  earth  dams,  open- 
braced  cuts,  and  other  similar  structures.  In  addition,  model  studies  on 
the  behavior  of  footings  or  piles  are  possible  for  both  static  and  cyclical 
loading  conditions. 

Materials  Laboratory  The  materials  laboratory  provides  for  both  re- 
search and  teaching  needs.  Capabilities  are  in  the  experimental  deter- 
mination of  the  physico-chemical  properties  of  materials.  These  include 
destructive  and  nondestructive  strength  determinations  as  well  as 
microstructural  and  chemical  analyses. 

Water-Quality  Laboratory  Capabilities  include  analyses  of  both  water 
and  wastewater  samples  in  physical,  chemical,  and  biological  regimes. 
Laboratory  and  supporting  equipment  enable  complete  studies  in  the 
following  areas:  water  analysis,  wastewater  analysis,  trace-metal  and 
organic  analysis,  stream  and  estuary  studies,  waste-treatability  studies, 
unit  operations,  bioassay  techniques,  pilot  plant  studies,  tracer  studies, 
and  complete  instrument  analysis. 

Instrument  analysis  capabilities  include  atomic  absorption,  total  car- 
bon, organic  carbon,  specific  ions,  gas  chromatography,  spectrophoto- 
metric,  and  gravimetric  analyses. 

Special  areas  are  available  for  unit  operation  studies  in  water  and 
wastewater  treatment.  A  well-equipped  machine  shop  has  been  estab- 
lished so  that  special  equipment  can  be  designed  and  built  for  model- 
prototype  studies. 

Air  Pollution  Laboratory  Equipment  is  available  to  sample  ambient 
air  and  gaseous  and  particulate  pollutants  and  to  evaluate  the  physical, 
chemical,  and  biological  characteristics  of  atmospheric  pollutants.  Con- 
tinuous air  samples  may  be  established  in  any  area  in  Metropolitan 
Boston  and  the  samples  analyzed  by  ultraviolet-visible,  fluorescence, 
and  atomic  spectrophotometry,  as  well  as  gas  chromatography  and 
infrared  techniques.  A  portable  carbon-monoxide  analyzer  with  pnntout 
equipment  is  available  for  measurement  studies  and  research  work. 

Recent  equipment  additions  also  make  it  possible  to  conduct  studies 
in  noise  pollution.

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  Among  their  many  achievements,  electrical  engineers  have 
been  primarily  responsible  for  the  development  of  the  computer,  inte- 
grated circuits,  the  pacemaker,  satellite  communication,  space  naviga- 
tion, microprocessors,  television,  and  the  means  of  providing  the  energy 
needed  to  run  our  cities  and  our  industries.  At  present,  electrical  engi- 
neers are  working  to  help  find  solutions  to  the  problems  of  information 
transfer  and  management,  industrial  productivity,  energy  conservation 
and  alternative  energy  sources,  transportation,  and  health  care. 

This  is  just  a  small  sample  of  the  growing  wealth  of  evidence  that 
indicates  that  electrical  engineering  has  impact  on  all  facets  of  our  cul- 
ture. As  with  all  branches  of  technology,  the  societal  functions  and  aims 
of  electrical  engineering  are  to  maintain  and  improve  the  quality  of  life. 

Description  of  Electrical  Engineering  Despite  the  diversity  of  its  ap- 
plication, electrical  engineering  may  be  conveniently  divided  into  two 
broad,  general  areas  of  information  sciences  and  energy  resources.  The 
area  of  information  sciences  is  concerned  primarily  with  systems  whose 
function  is  computation,  communication,  or  control.  Included  in  this  area 


166  /  College  of  Engineering 

are  the  circuits  and  devices  that  comprise  the  systems  and  the  appli- 
cation of  the  systems  and  engineering  techniques  to  other  disciplines. 
Energy  resources  deal  with  problems  related  to  the  sources,  generation, 
and  distribution  of  large  quantities  of  electrical  energy.  It  should  be 
noted,  however,  that  no  rigid  boundary  exists  between  the  two  areas, 
and  many  of  the  technical  specialties  within  electrical  engineering  are 
applicable  to  both  areas. 

Many  electrical  engineers  are  involved  with  the  more  traditional  activ- 
ities of  system  design  and  development,  such  as  the  information  sci- 
ences or  energy  resources  areas.  Other  electrical  engineers  apply  the 
knowledge  gained  in  their  professional  education  to  such  disciplines  as 
ocean  exploration,  meteorology,  experimental  psychology,  electronic 
music,  health-care  systems,  bioelectronics,  and  educational  devices  for 
the  disadvantaged. 

The  optimistic  outlook  for  electrical  engineering  is  based  on  the 
breadth  of  the  technical  activity  described  above.  We  are  constantly 
reminded  that  among  the  pressing  problems  in  our  society  are  improve- 
ment of  industrial  productivity,  the  energy  crisis,  data  communication 
and  management,  urban  transportation,  health  care,  and  the  plight  of 
the  socially  and  physically  disadvantaged. 

No  one  has  yet  been  able  to  forecast  how  these  problems  will  be 
solved  without  the  use  of  technological  resources.  Readily  available 
electrical  energy,  data  processing,  electronic  instrumentation  and  con- 
trol, and  communication  are  among  the  crucial  resources  needed. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Program  The  purpose  of  the  curriculum  is  to 
offer  the  student  an  education  that  has  the  breadth  and  depth  necessary 
for  professional  practice.  Breadth  is  needed  to  give  the  student  an 
awareness  of  all  that  electrical  engineering  encompasses  and  to  provide 
the  necessary  background  for  independent  study,  a  major  criterion  for 
professional  success.  Individual  career  objectives  and  initial  profes- 
sional achievement  can  result,  in  part,  from  learning  a  subject  area  in 
some  depth.  To  achieve  the  balance  between  depth  and  breadth,  the 
curriculum  is  divided  into  the  core  program  and  elective  courses. 

The  core  program  includes  those  courses  with  content  applicable  to 
all  specialties  in  electrical  engineering  and  offers  students  a  basic  back- 
ground for  future  learning.  Subject  areas  covered  in  the  core  program 
include: 

1.  Circuits  and  systems 

2.  Electronic  devices  and  circuits 

3.  Digital  computer  design 

4.  Electromagnetic  theory 

5.  Electromechanical  dynamics  (energy  conversion) 

6.  Electrical  measurements  (laboratories) 

The  elective  courses  are  designed  to  permit  students  to  develop  their 
own  interests.  Many  students  use  this  part  of  the  program  to  learn  a 
particular  subject  in  depth  and  to  better  prepare  for  graduate  studies.  A 
broad  range  of  courses  is  offered,  including  Digital  Computer  Architec- 
ture, Software  Engineering,  Robotics,  Communication  Systems,  Control 
Systems,  Advanced  Electronics,  Solid-state  Devices,  Power  Systems, 
Wave  Propagation  and  Distributed  Circuits,  Network  Theory,  and  Math- 
ematical Techniques. 

In  addition,  students  who  wish  to  conduct  individual  projects  or  learn 
about  a  subject  area  not  offered  in  an  elective  course  may  enroll  in  the 


Electrical  and  Computer  Engineering  / 167 

senior  project  course  and  work  with  an  interested  faculty  adviser  on  a 
one-to-one  basis. 

Electrical  engineering  graduates  of  Northeastern  who  have  attended 
graduate  schools  have  done  well.  Those  who  have  entered  industry  find 
they  compare  favorably  with  graduates  of  other  institutions  and  many 
have  risen  to  positions  of  leadership  in  their  professions. 

B.S.-M.S.  Program 

Honor  students  may  elect  the  five-year  B.S.-M.S.  program.  By  taking 
some  course  overloads  and  forgoing  one  senior  co-op  term,  a  student 
may  complete  requirements  for  both  the  B.S.E.E.  and  M.S.E.E.  degrees 
in  five  years. 

Option  in  Power  Systems 
Engineering 

The  Power  Systems  Engineering  Program  in  Electrical  Engineering  is  a 
special  option  for  those  who  wish  to  specialize  in  energy  resources.  This 
program  is  conducted  in  cooperation  with  the  electric  power  companies 
in  New  England  and  other  eastern  states.  The  Master's  degree  can  be 
obtained  in  six  years  of  cooperative  education  or  through  the  five-year 
B.S.-M.S.  program  described  above.  For  further  information  about  this 
program,  students  are  advised  to  contact  Prof.  Sarma  Mulukutla,  Elec- 
trical Engineering,  306  Dana. 


Option  in  Computer  Engineering 


The  option  in  Computer  Engineering  is  provided  for  those  who  wish  to 
specialize  in  the  design  of  digital  computers  and  their  integration  within 
larger  systems  for  communications,  resource  management,  and  auto- 
matic control. 

In  the  design  of  a  digital  processing  system,  hardware  and  software 
must  be  considered  as  an  integrated  entity — software  cannot  be  sepa- 
rated from  hardware  considerations.  Thus,  the  computer  engineer  must 
be  both  a  capable  programmer  and  a  capable  hardware  designer.  The 
collective  demands  of  computer  engineering  plus  traditional  electrical 
engineering  encompass  more  knowledge  than  can  be  included  in  a 
single,  highly  structured  degree  program.  The  solution  at  Northeastern, 
as  at  many  other  schools,  was  to  adopt  a  new  undergraduate  option 
within  Electrical  Engineering.  The  objective  of  this  option  is  to  provide 
the  student  with  a  basic  and  comprehensive  knowledge  of  the  principles 
that  underlie  the  organization,  design,  and  applications  of  digital  pro- 
cessing systems.  It  encompasses  both  the  hardware  and  software  de- 
sign aspects  of  the  system  and  offers  students  the  opportunity  to  acquire 
an  understanding  of  the  important  relationships  and  "trade-offs"  be- 
tween the  hardware  and  software  components  of  a  digital  system.  This 
understanding  is  necessary  in  order  to  create  computer  systems  that 
satisfy  the  users'  needs  at  prices  they  can  afford. 

The  Computer  Engineering  option  follows  curriculum  recommenda- 
tions in  the  report  "An  Undergraduate  Computer  Engineering  Option  for 
Electrical  Engineering"  by  the  Cosine  Committee  of  the  Commission  on 
Education,  National  Academy  of  Engineering,  Washington,  D.C.  20418 
(January  1970).  An  important  feature  of  this  option  is  that  it  leads  to  a 
Bachelor  of  Science  degree  with  specification— a  degree  in  Electrical 
Engineering  accredited  nationally  by  the  Engineering  Accreditation 
Commission  of  the  Accreditation  Board  for  Engineering  and  Technology 
(ABET).

Part-Time  Program 


The  Electrical  Engineering  Program  is  available  on  a  part-time  basis. 
The  classes  are  scheduled  during  the  evening  hours,  usually  two  eve- 
nings per  week.  The  curriculum  can  be  completed  in  a  minimum  of  six 
years. 


Laboratories 


The  seven  laboratory  courses  included  in  the  program  are  an  integral 
part  of  the  educational  process.  Their  purpose  is  both  to  supplement 
concepts  developed  in  core  courses  and  to  introduce  the  student  to 
design  and  experimental  techniques. 

To  provide  this  facet  of  the  educational  experience,  the  Department 
has  laboratory  equipment  in  excess  of  $1.5  million.  In  addition  to  stan- 
dard professional  laboratory  equipment,  several  specialized  laboratory 
facilities  are  maintained.  These  include  several  small  digital  computers 
(such  as  a  PDP-11  or  LSI-11),  personal  computers,  a  number  of  CRT 
terminals,  and  a  variety  of  microprocessors.  Programming  courses  and 
research  programs  also  use  the  large  computer  system  of  the  College 
of  Engineering  and  the  University. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  in  the  College  of  Engineering 
is  the  same  for  all  majors  in  the  College.  See  page  157.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Industrial  engineers  are  problem  solvers.  They  formulate  strate- 
gies and  make  decisions  that  involve  the  utilization  of  individuals,  mate- 
nals,  equipment,  and  energy  to  achieve  the  goals  of  an  organization. 
Management  needs  factual  information  that  defines  the  consequences 
of  alternative  decisions.  The  industrial  engineer  collects  this  information 
and  evaluates  alternatives  to  make  the  decision  that  best  achieves  a 
particular  organizational  goal.  The  scope  of  decisions  may  involve  the 
entire  organization  or  some  portion  of  it  associated  with  a  given  product 
or  service. 

Traditionally,  industrial  engineers  have  been  most  widely  employed  in 
manufacturing  organizations,  but  increasingly  they  are  finding  employ- 
ment in  service  industries,  such  as  airlines,  banks,  hospitals,  and  local 
and  federal  government  agencies.  Courses  in  the  curriculum  reflect  the 
industrial  engineer's  interest  in  society's  changing  attitudes  about  com- 
puters, population  growth,  pollution,  and  the  quality  of  life. 

Another  responsibility  of  the  Department  of  Industrial  Engineering  and 
Information  Systems  is  to  provide  a  comprehensive  view  of  engineering. 
Students  are  confronted  with  several  problems  similar  to  those  they  may 
encounter  in  professional  careers.  Methods  of  problem  solving  and 
graphic  representation  of  solutions  are  emphasized  so  that  students 
have  the  opportunity  to  learn  some  of  the  ways  engineers  communicate 
through  drawings  and  sketches.  The  role  of  an  engineer  as  a  creative 
designer  is  described  by  relatively  large  case  studies  that  show  the 
step-by-step  solution  to  specially  chosen  problems  cutting  across  sev- 
eral engineering  disciplines. 

Description  of  Industrial  Engineering  In  performing  problem  analy 
ses,  the  industrial  engineer  is  concerned  with  complex,  integrated  man- 
machine  systems.  To  treat  the  machine  elements  of  the  system,  the 


172 /College  of  Engineering 

industrial  engineer  requires  knowledge  of  engineering  fundamentals. 
Also  necessary  is  some  background  in  the  behavioral  sciences  to  un- 
derstand how  the  human  elements  of  the  system  operate  and  how  they 
relate  to  each  other  and  the  machines. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Program  The  program  is  designed  to  include 
extensive  course  work  in  mathematics,  physics,  science,  and  the  engi- 
neering sciences.  The  first  two  years  provide  the  student  with  the  oppor- 
tunity to  build  a  strong  foundation  for  use  in  later  course  offerings. 

The  required  program  affords  students  an  opportunity  to  develop  a 
strong  base  in  probability,  statistics,  operations  research,  and  computer 
systems.  Courses  in  work  design,  personnel  and  organizational  behav- 
ior, and  engineering  economy  provide  an  exposure  to  the  problems 
frequently  encountered  in  industrial  engineering.  Elective  offerings  in  the 
last  few  years  provide  an  opportunity  for  students  to  familiarize  them- 
selves with  other  areas  of  industrial  engineering,  such  as  plant  layout, 
quality  control,  simulation,  management  information  systems,  production 
and  inventory  control,  and  material-handling  systems  design. 

The  Computer  The  computer  is  of  particular  importance  to  the  indus- 
trial engineer  since  many  complicated  problems,  such  as  assembly-line 
balancing,  mathematical  modeling,  and  industrial  simulations,  require  a 
computer  solution. 

B.S.-M.S.  Program 

An  accelerated  program  is  available  for  honor  students,  allowing  com- 
pletion of  the  requirements  for  both  B.S.  and  M.S.  degrees  in  five  years 
through  course  overloads  and  the  elimination  of  the  senior  co-op  term. 

Laboratories 

Integrated  Laboratory  The  new  Industrial  Engineering  Laboratory  is 
an  integrated  lab  used  for  a  variety  of  different  courses.  Directly  associ- 
ated with  the  lab  classroom  are  the  computer  console  room,  utilized  in  a 
variety  of  courses;  the  copying  equipment  for  use  in  the  plant  layout 
courses;  and  the  machine-tool  lab  for  use  in  work  design.  Students  work 
as  individuals  or  in  groups,  depending  upon  the  scope  and  complexity 
of  the  project.  Extensive  laboratory  project  work  is  also  conducted  on 
real  problems  in  outside  industrial  plants  and  service  organizations.  Stu- 
dents can  view  actual  operations  on  occasional  plant  visits. 

Human  Factors  Laboratory  Equipped  primarily  for  experimentation  in 
perception,  the  facility  is  used  for  demonstration  and  student  projects. 

Computer  Laboratory  Numerous  microcomputers  and  minicompu- 
ters provide  an  opportunity  for  students  to  gain  experience  in  operating 
computers  and  utilizing  them  for  application  to  actual  engineering  prob- 
lems. The  department  has  a  large  collection  of  industrial  engineering 
software. 

l\/licroprocessor  and  Manufacturing  Systems  Laboratory  A  labora- 
tory with  microprocessors  is  available  for  hands-on  programming  expe- 
rience in  the  use  of  microprocessors  in  engineering  applications. 
Students  may  also  develop  small  experimental  situations  in  the  use  of 
microprocessors  and  minicomputers  in  a  manufacturing  environment. 
Robotics  experience  and  study  are  offered.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Mechanical  Engineering  is  the  branch  of  science  broadly  con- 
cerned with  energy,  including  its  transformation  from  one  form  to  an- 
other, its  transmission,  and  its  utilization.  Mechanical  engineers 
conceive,  plan,  design,  and  direct  the  manufacture,  distribution,  and 
operation  of  a  wide  variety  of  devices,  machines,  and  systems — includ- 
ing complex  man-machine  systems — for  energy  conversion,  environ- 
mental control,  materials  processing,  transportation,  materials  handling, 
and  other  purposes. 

Mechanical  engineers  are  engaged  in  all  the  engineering  functions, 
including  creative  design,  applied  research,  development,  production, 
and  management.  The  field  of  mechanical  engineering  is  broad,  provid- 
ing an  excellent  professional  base  for  career  choice  and  interdisciplinary 
activities. 

Description  of  Mechanical  Engineering  Mechanical  engineers  are 
concerned  with  the  development,  design,  manufacture,  and  operation 
of  a  wide  variety  of  devices,  machines,  and  systems  used  in  energy 
conversion,  environmental  control,  materials  processing,  transportation, 
prosthetics,  manufacturing,  and  the  field  of  consumer  products. 

The  rapid  technological  advances  of  the  past  four  decades  have  con- 
siderably expanded  the  mechanical  engineer's  sphere  of  inquiry  and 
influence.  These  new  areas  of  inquiry  have  placed  the  mechanical  en- 
gineer in  contact  with  such  diverse  disciplines  as  nuclear  and  solid-state 
physics,  quantum  mechanics,  plasma  physics,  chemical  kinetics,  mag- 
neto-hydrodynamics, and  rarefied  gas  dynamics,  to  name  a  few

Mechanical  Engineering  / 175 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Program  In  the  first  three  years,  students 
have  the  opportunity  to  learn  the  basic  sciences  (mathematics,  physics, 
and  chemistry),  the  engineering  sciences  (mechanics,  thermodynamics, 
fluid  mechanics,  and  material  science),  and  the  humanities.  As  upper- 
classmen,  they  may  choose  to  concentrate  their  studies  in  the  areas  of 
thermofluid  engineering,  mechanics  and  design,  or  materials  science 
and  engineering. 

Thermofluid  engineering  is  concerned  with  the  properties  and  char- 
acteristics of  the  working  fluid  of  machines.  For  example,  the  ability  of 
an  aircraft  to  fly  depends  upon  the  manner  in  which  air  flows  over  its 
lifting  surfaces.  The  energy  to  run  a  turbine  is  extracted  from  the  steam 
or  combustion  gases  that  pass  through  it.  The  engineer  must  understand 
and  have  a  knowledge  of  the  concepts  of  thermodynamics.  The  effi- 
ciency of  a  cooling  tower  depends  upon  the  mechanisms  by  which  fluids 
transfer  heat  to  surfaces,  so  the  engineer  must  have  a  firm  grasp  of  the 
principles  of  heat  transfer. 

IVlechanics  and  design  are  based  upon  the  fundamental  scientific  and 
mathematical  tools  utilized  in  the  analysis  of  mechanical  configurations 
as  they  evolve  in  the  design  of  machines  and  power-producing  devices. 
For  example,  the  engineer  in  the  area  of  mechanics  and  design  may 
analyze  and  design  structural  components  for  power  plants  and  deep- 
sea  oceanographic  vessels  or  develop  new  methods  for  evaluating  fila- 
mentary composite  structures.  In  the  modern  machine-tool  industry, 
engineers  may  be  concerned  with  computer  control  of  machine  tools;  in 
the  engine  industry,  they  may  analyze  stresses  in  components  such  as 
turbine  blades.  To  prepare  for  such  challenges,  upperclass  students 
have  the  opportunity  to  expand  their  basic  knowledge  by  selecting 
courses  such  as  Intermediate  Strength  of  Materials,  Vibrations,  Systems 
Analysis  and  Control,  Engineering  Analysis,  Design  Fundamentals,  and 
Computer-Aided  Design. 

Materials  science  and  engineering  is  concerned  with  relationships 
among  the  structure,  composition,  properties,  and  functions  of  materials 
and  with  control  of  the  structure  and  composition  to  achieve  desired 
properties.  Only  recently  have  engineers  come  to  realize  that  an  under- 
standing of  the  principles  of  materials  science  enables  them  to  design 
more  creatively  and  with  greater  freedom  than  the  traditional  reference 
to  handbooks.  Examples  of  areas  in  which  mechanical  engineers  find 
materials  properties  a  part  of  the  basic  design  function  include:  manu- 
facturing techniques,  structures  (vehicles,  buildings),  energy  conver- 
sion, electronic  devices  (including  computers),  packaging,  and 
prosthetic  devices.  Advanced  courses  are  available  for  those  mechani- 
cal engineers  who  desire  further  knowledge  in  the  materials  field. 

B.S.-M.S.  Program 

Honor  students  may  elect  an  accelerated  program  allowing  completion 
of  the  requirements  for  both  B.S.  and  M.S.  degrees  in  five  years  through 
course  overloads  and  the  elimination  of  the  senior  co-op  term. 

Part-Time  Program 

The  Mechanical  Engineering  Program  is  available  on  a  part-time  basis. 
The  classes  are  scheduled  during  the  evening  hours,  usually  two  eve- 
nings per  week.  The  curriculum  can  be  completed  in  a  minimum  of  six 
years.

Laboratories 


Mechanical  Engineering  Laboratories  The  laboratories  in  Mechani- 
cal Engineering  contain  equipment  ranging  from  an  electron  microscope 
and  ultrasonic  measuring  devices  to  pumps  and  weirs.  Students  working 
on  thermofluids  projects  may  use  a  turbine,  various  types  of  engines, 
thermoelectric  coolers  and  generators,  and  a  supersonic  wind  tunnel,  to 
name  a  few.  A  material  science  laboratory  provides  research  micro- 
scopes, various  furnaces,  a  fluid-to-fluid  extrusion  press.  X-ray  diffrac- 
tion equipment,  electron  microscope,  and  other  related  equipment.  For 
the  mechanics  and  design  areas,  vibrations,  experimental  stress  analy- 
sis, and  materials  testing  facilities  are  provided.  A  continuous  effort  is 
made  by  the  Department  to  update  and  replace  laboratory  equipment.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Biomedical  engineering  is  concerned  with  the  scientific  princi- 
ples underlying  the  physical  and  biological  sciences  and  their  applica- 
tion to  problems  of  biological  and  medical  significance. 

Biomedical  engineers  are  engaged  in  both  theoretical  and  experimen- 
tal studies  either  as  independent  investigators  or  as  members  of  a  re- 
search or  development  group.  They  may  characterize  and  determine 
the  mechanism  of  action  of  natural  and  synthetic  macromolecules,  ana- 
lyze the  properties  of  blood,  and/or  investigate  the  structure  and  function 
of  such  organ  systems  as  the  nervous  system,  the  respiratory  system, 
the  cardiovascular  system,  or  the  endocrine  system.  They  may  design, 
develop,  market  and  apply  transducers,  cardiac  pacemakers  and  de- 
fibrillators, heart-assist  systems,  artificial  kidneys  and  limbs,  or  diagnos- 
tic and  therapeutic  X-ray  equipment.  They  are  important  members  of  the 
hospital  health  team. 

Description  of  Biomedical  Engineering  There  is  no  special  curricu- 
lum in  Biomedical  Engineering.  Several  of  the  engineering  disciplines 
discussed  in  this  catalog  help  provide  the  engineer  with  a  background 
in  the  physical  sciences.  The  purpose  of  the  Biomedical  Engineering 
Department  is  to  assist  the  engineering  student,  from  the  freshman  year 
through  the  senior  year,  to  choose  courses  in  the  biological  sciences 
that  will  complement  those  in  the  physical  sciences  and  humanities 
taken  in  the  standard  engineering  curriculum. 

Courses  may  be  chosen  without  prejudicing  the  students'  obtaining 
degrees  in  their  field  of  engineering  specialization.  In  some  cases, 
courses  in  the  biological  sciences  can  be  taken  as  additional  work  dur- 
ing the  student's  career  at  the  University.  In  other  cases,  courses  in  the 
biological  sciences  can  be  taken  as  electives  in  the  standard  engineer- 
ing curriculum.  The  opportunity  to  take  these  courses  is  dependent  on 
the  student's  interests,  capabilities,  and  academic  record.  It  is,  of 
course,  limited  by  possible  schedule  conflicts. 

Students  who  wish  to  take  an  engineering  program  that  includes  bio- 
logical sciences  must  contact  the  Biomedical  Engineering  Department 
on  their  arrival  as  freshmen  at  the  University.  This  is  important  since 
biology  is  substituted  for  graphics  in  the  first  year. 

Education  in  a  program  involving  the  physical  and  biological  sciences 
offers  a  sound  foundation  for  future  work  toward  a  doctorate  in  medicine 
or  dentistry,  a  career  in  biomedical  engineering,  or  a  career  as  an  engi- 
neer in  a  hospital  or  a  government  agency  such  as  the  Department  of 
Health  and  Human  Services,  depending  upon  such  factors  as  the  state 
of  the  economy  and  the  student's  own  industry  and  overall  ability.  Indus- 
trial organizations,  particularly  those  in  the  health-care  industry,  may  be 
seeking  individuals  with  a  strong  background  in  engineenng  supple- 
mented by  a  biological  science  education.  Other  career  opportunities 
may  include  public  health,  the  psychological  sciences,  and  the  marine 
sciences.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Engineering  and  technology  influence  virtually  all  areas  of  en- 
deavor and  have  a  profound  effect  on  the  lifestyle  and  institutions  of 
society.  The  impact  is  both  cultural  and  scientific  and  is  manifested  by 
the  awareness  that  solutions  to  society's  problems  are,  in  part,  techno- 
logical. The  major  purpose  of  the  General  Engineering  program  is  to 
provide  flexible,  interdisciplinary  educational  opportunities  based  on 
fundamental  engineering  concepts.  The  interdisciplinary  nature  of  the 
program  allows  the  student  to  develop  other  areas  of  interest  in  which 
an  engineering  background  is  professionally  useful. 

Description  of  General  Engineering  The  program  is  designed  for 
students  whose  interests  are  in  engineering-related  professions  rather 
than  in  the  traditional  profession  of  engineering.  It  is  expected  that  the 
work  performed  by  graduates  of  this  program  will  encompass  the  entire 
spectrum  of  professional  activity,  including  such  typical  areas  as  com- 
puters, urban  technology,  social  systems,  and  health  care. 

The  General  Engineenng  program  is  highly  elective  and  gives  stu- 
dents the  opportunity  to  develop,  in  conjunction  with  their  adviser,  a 
program  designed  to  meet  their  own  career  objectives.  To  achieve  this 
goal,  the  student  is  exposed  to  the  fundamental  engineering  areas 
through  courses  in  electric  circuits,  systems,  mechanics,  thermodynam- 
ics, and  materials.  These  courses  are  based  on  principles  developed  in 
early  courses  in  mathematics  and  physics.  In  addition,  because  the 
computer  is  a  basic  tool  in  any  technological  environment,  each  student 
is  required  to  learn  the  elements  of  computer  programming.  Students 
completing  the  adviser-approved  program  receive  an  unspecified  B.S. 
degree  from  the  College  of  Engineering. 

Graduate  education  and  continuing  education  are  increasingly  impor- 
tant in  professional  life.  By  appropriately  planning  their  programs,  stu- 
dents will  be  able  to  satisfy  the  course  requirements  necessary  for 
admission  to  various  graduate  and  professional  schools,  including  law, 
medicine,  public  health,  and  social  sciences,  as  well  as  engineering. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Program  Each  student  in  the  program  is 
required  to  satisfy  the  following  minimum  requirements  beyond  the 
freshman  year: 

8  quarter  hours  in  mathematics 
6  quarter  hours  in  physics  (including  laboratory) 
4  quarter  hours  in  circuit  theory 
4  quarter  hours  in  materials 
4  quarter  hours  in  systems 
4  quarter  hours  in  thermodynamics 

16  quarter  hours  in  social  sciences  (consisting  of  at  least  two  se- 
quences of  two  courses  each  from  the  areas  of  sociology,  eco- 
nomics, political  science,  and  psychology) 


I 


General  Engineering  / 179 

8  quarter  hours  in  the  humanities,  consisting  of  at  least  two  courses 
fronn  the  areas  of  art,  history,  language  and  literature  (not  includ- 
ing grammar),  music,  philosophy,  and  drama  (not  including  pub- 
lic speaking) 
The  remaining  portion  of  the  program  is  completely  elective  but  must 
be  designed  to  fit  the  student's  career  objectives.  At  least  24  quarter 
hours  of  course  work  must  be  taken  in  the  professional  departments  of 
the  College  of  Engineering  (Chemical,  Civil,  Electrical  and  Computer, 
Industrial  and  Information  Systems,  and  Mechanical  Engineering). 

Beyond  the  freshman  year,  students,  in  conjunction  with  a  faculty 
adviser,  plan  their  programs.  Basically,  the  elective  program  permits 
each  student  to  plan  a  distinctive  and  highly  individual  curriculum. 

Although  each  student  is  enrolled  in  a  "different  program,"  the  goals 
of  each  are  the  same:  the  breadth  of  an  engineering-based  liberal  edu- 
cation in  combination  with  the  development  of  professional  skills.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  School  of  Engineering  Technology  (formerly  Lincoln  Col- 
lege) offers  programs  in  engineering  technology.  Although  these  pro- 
grams are  concerned  with  the  same  general  fields  of  engineering 
specialization,  they  concentrate  on  the  applications  of  technology  rather 
than  its  development. 

Emphasis  is  placed  on  the  rational  processes  involved  in  converting 
theories  and  ideas  into  practical  techniques,  procedures,  and  products. 
The  engineering  technologist  works  with  the  professional  engineer,  sci- 
entist, medical  doctor,  supervisor,  and  craftsman  in  converting  scientific 
knowledge  and  craftsmanship  into  products  and  techniques.  Funda- 
mentals are  related  to  current  practice,  providing  a  supportive  "why"  for 
the  practical  "how."  At  the  same  time,  study  of  the  humanities  and  social 
sciences  gives  students  an  opportunity  to  develop  an  awareness  of  the 
social,  economic,  and  political  influences  that  are  part  of  the  real  world. 

The  structure  of  the  Engineering  Technology  curriculum  is  based  upon 
the  dual  need  for  relevant  technical  skills  and  a  foundation  for  future 
growth.  Engineering  technology  education  can  assist  students  to: 

1 .  Understand  the  scientific  principles  that  govern  the  current  tech- 
nology of  the  particular  branch  of  engineering  that  they  select; 

2.  Develop  competence  in  the  application  of  technology  to  problem 
solving; 

3.  Communicate  effectively  the  important  implications  of  technologi- 
cal advancements; 

4.  Acquire  the  motivation  for  continued  development  of  technical 
skills. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Program  The  School  offers  five-year  coop- 
erative programs  in  Mechanical  and  Electrical  Engineering  Technology,

and  Computer  Technology  leading  to  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Engi- 
neering Technology. 

Since  the  first  year  of  study  is  similar  for  electrical  and  mechanical 
engineering  technology  students,  a  firm  choice  of  major  may  be  delayed 
until  the  spring.  At  this  time,  the  choice  of  cooperative  work  assignments 
makes  a  decision  mandatory.  Due  to  the  unique  program  designed  for 
computer  technology,  students  must  decide  on  this  major  during  the  first 
quarter  of  their  freshman  year.  Freshman  courses  act  as  a  foundation  for 
upperclass  studies.  About  four-fifths  of  the  upperclass  program  is  de- 
voted to  scientific  and  technological  study  and  about  one-fifth  to  human- 
istic-social courses,  with  the  aim  of  balancing  technical  proficiency  with 
an  appreciation  for  the  nontechnical  aspects  of  society  and  culture. 
Cooperative  work  assignments  during  the  upperclass  years  are  most 
valuable  in  helping  students  to  integrate  the  important  elements  of  both 
a  technical  and  a  liberal  education. 

Transfer  Aerospace  Co-op  Program  The  School  is  offering,  for  trans- 
fer students,  a  three-year  Bachelor  of  Engineering  Technology  degree 
program  with  a  major  in  Aerospace  Maintenance  Engineering  Technol- 
ogy. This  BET  program,  in  cooperation  with  East  Coast  Aero  Technical 
School,  is  designed  for  students  who  have  successfully  completed  an 
Aircraft  and  Power  Plant  Mechanics  or  similar  technician  programs.  Dur- 
ing their  three  years  of  study  at  Northeastern  University  these  students 
will  participate  in  the  Cooperative  Education  system  thereby  enhancing 
the  technical  classroom  education  received. 

Part-Time  Program  Offered  During  Evening  Hours  The  School  also 
offers  six-  and  seven-year,  part-time  curncula  leading  to  the  degree  of 
Bachelor  of  Engineering  Technology  in  the  following  areas; 

Civil  Engineenng  Technology 

Mechanical  Engineering  Technology 

Mechanical-Structural  Engineering  Technology 

Electrical  Engineering  Technology 

Computer  Technology 

Aerospace  Maintenance  Engineering  Technology  (transfer) 

Classes  are  held  in  the  evenings  and  generally  meet  two  times  per 
week.  For  further  information  on  admission  to  these  programs,  contact 
the  School  of  Engineering  Technology  (formerly  Lincoln  College)  office 
at  120  Snell  Engineering  Center. 

Graduation  Requirements 

Candidates  for  the  Bachelor  of  Engineering  Technology  degree  must 
complete  all  of  the  prescribed  work  of  the  curriculum  in  which  they  seek 
to  qualify.  A  total  of  approximately  180  quarter  hours  is  required  for  the 
degree.  Students  who  undertake  the  cooperative  education  program 
must  meet  the  requirements  of  the  Department  of  Cooperative  Education 
before  they  become  eligible  for  their  degrees. 

Students  transferring  from  another  college  or  university  are  not  eligible 
to  receive  the  degree  until  they  have  completed  at  least  one  academic 
year  at  Northeastern  immediately  preceding  their  graduation. 


Graduation  with  Honors 

Baccalaureate  candidates  who  have  attained  superior  grades  in  their 
academic  work  will  be  graduated  cum  laude.  Upon  special  vote  of  th 
faculty,  a  limited  number  of  this  group  may  be  graduated  magna  cum 
laude  or  summa  cum  laude.  Students  must  have  been  in  attendance  at

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  Computer  Technology  program  is  designed  to  supply  a  por- 
tion of  the  manpower  needs  for  the  complex  computer  industry.  Gradu- 
ates of  this  program  may  become  an  integral  part  of  the  engineering 
support  team  which  develops  techniques  to  implement  the  engineering 
design  project.  In  this  capacity,  they  become  a  research  and  production 
team  which  maintains  a  close  cooperation  and  communication  with  the 
engineers. 

The  program  is  designed  to  provide  students  with  both  academic  and 
technical  learning  experience  using  a  basic  core  curriculum  which  pro- 
vides courses  in  theoretical  and  technical  areas.  Students  also  choose 
technical  electives  in  their  area  of  interest.  Theory  courses  are  offered  at 
the  higher  levels  of  the  technology  spectrum.  These  higher  level  theory 
courses  provide  the  means  for  students  to  continue  their  educational 
and  professional  development  beyond  the  baccalaureate  level.  Some 
students  may  be  prepared  to  pursue  the  Master  of  Technology  degree 
or,  through  supplemental  course  work,  the  more  theoretical  Bachelor  of 
Science  degree. 

Description  of  the  Major  Computer  technology  deals  with  the  design 
and  application  of  equipment  and  systems  related  to  the  hardware  and 
software  aspects  of  computers.  Its  major  functions  include: 

1 .  Interfacing  the  computer  with  process  plants  or  machinery; 

2.  Programming  the  computer  for  engineering,  scientific,  and  busi- 
ness applications; 

3.  Designing,  engineering,  and  testing  computers; 

4.  Interfacing  computers  to  various  types  of  equipment  for  automatic 
drafting,  data  collection,  design,  and  display. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Major  The  present-day  high-speed  comput- 
ers have  been  realized  through  the  application  of  technology  developed 
in  the  electrical  and  the  electronic  fields.  Because  of  this  interdepend- 
ence, the  program  of  study  for  Computer  Technology  begins,  as  in  Elec- 
trical Engineering  Technology,  with  the  basic  courses  in  mathematics 
and  physics. 

An  introduction  to  computer  programming  and  the  study  of  basic 
computer  organization  provide  an  early  contact  with  the  major  field  of 
study.  In  addition,  the  freshman  year  includes  literature  and  engineering 
graphics  to  aid  students  in  developing  the  skills  to  express  themselves. 

In  the  upperclass  years  the  balance  of  hardware  and  software 
courses,  combined  with  hands-on  laboratory  experience,  provides  the 
student  with  the  opportunity  to  develop  skills  for  interfacing  the  computer 
with  various  systems  or  to  design  computers  and  the  related  systems  of 
programs.  Current  practice  is  stressed. 

The  senior  year  technical  electives  are  offered  to  ensure  that  students 
acquire  both  depth  and  specialization.

Louis  J.  Nardone,  M.S.,  Coordinator  for  Electrical  Engineering 
Technology 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  Electrical  Engineering  Technology  progrann  is  directed  to- 
ward supplying  some  of  the  manpower  needs  of  the  industrial  complex 
and  high  technology  industries.  Because  of  the  nature  of  high  technol- 
ogy industries,  close  communication  and  cooperation  is  required  be- 
tween the  technologist  and  the  engineer  in  forming  a  viable  working 
team.  Students  through  their  cooperative  work  assignments  in  industry 
bear  evidence  of  this  need. 

In  an  effort  to  implement  these  objectives,  the  program  is  designed  to 
provide  the  student  with  a  broad  education  through  the  use  of  a  basic 
core  curriculum.  Courses  are  offered  at  a  high  level  of  theory  at  the 
upper  end  of  the  technology  spectrum.  Technical  electives  are  offered 
to  accommodate  the  student's  area  of  interest. 

The  higher  theoretical  level  provided  in  the  program  also  prepares 
students  to  continue  their  education  beyond  the  Bachelor  of  Technology 
degree.  These  continued  studies  could  be  toward  a  Master  of  Technol- 
ogy degree  or,  through  supplemental  course  work,  could  prepare  them 
for  more  theoretical  engineering  science  subject  areas. 

Description  of  the  Major  Electrical  engineering  technology  deals  with 
the  design  and  operation  of  equipment  and  systems  related  to  power, 
communications,  data  processing,  and  electrical  control.  Its  major  func- 
tions include: 

1.  The  generation,  transmission,  and  distribution  of  electrical  energy 
for  light  and  power  purposes; 

2.  The  development  and  production  of  equipment  for  telephone,  ra- 
dio, television,  radar,  and  communication; 

3.  The  design  and  construction  of  data-processing  systems  and  an- 
alog or  digital  computers; 

4.  The  application  of  electrical  and  electronic  devices  in  the  control 
of  processes  and  manufacture. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  IVIajor  Since  electrical  engineering  technol- 
ogy derives  many  of  its  fundamentals  from  developments  in  the  pure 
sciences,  the  program  of  study  begins  with  basic  courses  in  mathemat- 
ics and  physics.  In  addition,  the  freshman  year  includes  literature  and 
engineering  graphics  to  aid  students  in  developing  the  skills  with  which 
to  express  themselves. 

In  the  upperclass  years,  courses  are  divided  into  four  related  se- 
quences: circuits  and  systems,  including  feedback  control;  microwave 
devices;  energy  conversion,  emphasizing  electromagnetic  devices;  and 
laboratory  work  associated  with  all  of  the  aforementioned.  Current  prac- 
tice is  stressed. 

In  the  senior  year,  electives  are  offered  to  ensure  that  students  acquire 
both  depth  and  specialization. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  in  the  School  of  Engineering 
Technology  (formerly  Lincoln  College)  is  similar  for  Electrical  and  Me- 
chanical Engineering  Technology.  See  page  184.

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  The  objectives  of  the  program  are  to  prepare  the  graduate  for 
technical  support  activities  as  a  technologist  in  the  broad  field  of  Me- 
chanical Engineering  Technology. 

The  student  who  has  learned  the  principles  of  science  and  mathemat- 
ics as  applied  to  his  or  her  field  will  be  able  to  convert  theories  into 
practical  techniques  and  processes. 

The  student  will  be  shown  how  to  effectively  communicate  this  tech- 
nical information  so  that  he  or  she  may  become  an  integral  component 
of  the  engineer-technologist-technician  design  and  operations  team. 

Description  of  the  IVlajor  Mechanical  engineering  technology  deals 
with  the  use  of  machinery  to  harness  power  resources  and  perform 
useful  work.  In  contrast  to  civil  engineering,  which  deals  primarily  with 
static  forces  and  structures,  mechanical  engineering  technology  is  more 
concerned  with  the  motion  and  kinetics  of  devices  activated  by  hy- 
draulic, electrical,  mechanical,  or  thermodynamic  forces.  Major  func- 
tions of  the  mechanical  engineering  technologist  include: 


Mechanical  Engineering  Technology  /  189 

1 .  Design  and  installation  of  all  kinds  of  machinery,  from  pocket 
watches  to  the  largest  steel  boring  mills; 

2.  Development  and  production  of  engines  and  transport  equipment, 
as  in  automobiles,  aircraft,  ships,  or  railway  cars; 

3.  Construction  and  operation  of  furnaces  and  boilers,  as  well  as 
heating  and  air-conditioning  equipment,  for  the  control  of  atmos- 
pheric and  environmental  conditions. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Major  Since  machinery  is  the  predominant 
concern  of  the  mechanical  engineering  technologist,  the  program  of 
study  is  designed  to  offer  considerable  training  in  the  principles  under- 
lying the  design  and  operation  of  engines,  power  transmission  devices, 
machine  tools,  and  other  machinery.  This,  of  course,  implies  a  thorough 
study  of  the  physical  laws  concerning  motion  and  transfer  of  energy. 
Applied  mechanics,  thermodynamics,  and  study  of  materials  will  occupy 
prominent  places  in  the  program. 

These  studies  help  provide  the  student  with  a  broad  foundation  in 
those  fundamental  subjects  essential  to  the  understanding  of  current 
practice.  In  the  senior  year,  students  have  elective  choice  and  opportu- 
nity for  specialization. 

The  freshman-year  program  of  studies  in  the  School  of  Engineering

ability  to  achieve  advance  placement  through  selected  testing  methods. 

A  View  of  the  Nursing  Program  The  College  of  Nursing  was  estab- 
lished at  Northeastern  University  in  1964.  In  keeping  with  its  commitment 
to  professional  nursing  education,  the  College  offers  a  course  of  study 
which  emphasizes  nursing  theory  and  nursing  research,  the  humanities, 


192 /College  of  Nursing 

and  the  biological,  physical,  and  social  sciences.  The  study  of  nursing 
begins  in  the  freshman  year.  Clinical  experience  in  health  care  settings 
is  introduced  in  the  second  year  of  the  program.  Approximately  thirty 
outstanding  hospitals  and  health-related  agencies  provide  facilities  for 
clinical  laboratories. 

The  College  of  Nursing  was  the  first  in  the  nation  to  operate  on  a 
cooperative  education  plan.  Beginning  in  the  sophomore  year,  students 
alternate  periods  of  academic  study  with  cooperative  work  experiences. 

During  periods  of  employment,  students  have  the  opportunity  to  gain 
experience  in  nursing  settings.  The  salary  earned  during  the  cooperative 
work  placement  accrues  totally  to  the  student.  Placements  are  arranged 
by  a  nursing  coordinator  in  accordance  with  agreements  made  by  the 
University  with  health  care  agencies.  Cooperative  work  experiences  are 
available  not  only  in  the  Greater  Boston  area  but  also  in  selected  sites 
across  the  country. 

Students  are  admitted  in  September  and  January.  A  summer  program 
is  provided  for  transfer  students. 

Graduation  Requirements 

Degrees  An  overall  minimum  scholastic  average  of  C  in  both  nursing 
and  general  studies  is  required  for  graduation. 

The  program  is  five  years  in  length  and  leads  to  the  degree  of  Bach- 
elor of  Science  in  Nursing. 

Accreditation 

The  program  of  the  College  of  Nursing  is  fully  accredited  by  the  National 
League  for  Nursing  and  approved  by  the  Board  of  Registration  in  Nurs- 
ing of  the  Commonwealth  of  Massachusetts. 

Licensure 

The  program  is  designed  to  prepare  graduates  to  qualify  to  take  the 
professional  examination  for  practice  as  a  registered  nurse. 

Transfer  Credit 

Students  may  be  allowed  to  transfer  credits  earned  in  courses  at  other 
institutions  if  a  grade  of  C  or  better  has  been  obtained  and  if  the  courses 
are  comparable  to  courses  required  at  Northeastern  University.  It  is 
unusual  for  specific  nursing  courses  to  be  transferable. 

Special  Requirements 

Health  Clearance  Every  student  must  have  a  complete  physical  ex- 
amination, including  a  tuberculin  test,  prior  to  registering  for  first  quarter 
classes.  Similarly,  proof  of  immunization  against  German  measles  is 
required  unless  a  satisfactory  antibody  titre  against  German  measles  is 
demonstrated. 

All  students  must  carry  malpractice  insurance.  Arrangements  for  this 
insurance  are  made  by  the  University.  Students  in  the  College  of  Nursing 
are  required  to  wear  the  school  uniform  in  clinical  laboratory  areas  dur- 
ing academic  quarters.  A  modification  of  the  uniform  is  worn  during 
cooperative  work  periods.

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Northeastern  University  recognizes  the  increased  demand  for 
well-educated  pharmacists  and  allied  health  professionals.  The  College 
of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  Professions  has  pledged  to  meet  this 
need  through  a  unique  combination:  the  Cooperative  Plan  of  Education 
and  a  highly  innovative  academic  program  designed  to  offer  students 
the  opportunity  to  prepare  themselves  to  become  effective  professional 
practitioners,  to  enter  graduate  schools,  and  to  obtain  employment  in 
the  many  areas  responsible  for  the  delivery  of  health  care. 

A  View  of  the  Five-Year  Program  Fundamental  to  the  College's  ap- 
proach to  health-care  education  are: 

1 .  A  curriculum  of  highly  relevant  and  closely  integrated  courses  in 
the  physical,  biological,  behavioral,  and  administrative  sciences 
comprising  the  basis  of  modern  professional  practice; 

2.  A  meaningful  involvement  in  the  clinical  aspects  of  patient  care 
via  affiliations  with  teaching  hospitals  and  related  institutions; 

3.  A  cooperative  work  program,  including  an  externship-internship 
period,  and  a  clinical  component  offenng  students  the  opportunity 
to  acquire  the  skills  and  actual  experience  integral  to  the  total 
program; 

4.  A  commitment  to  the  search  for  and  advancement  of  new  and 
progressive  concepts,  ideas,  and  philosophies  of  education  and 
professional  practice. 

Facilities 

The  College  occupies  the  Mugar  Life  Sciences  Building  on  the  main 
campus  of  the  University.  Completed  in  1963,  this  multimillion-dollar 
facility  offers  proximity  to  all  the  academic  and  extracurricular  activities 
of  the  University. 

The  building  and  the  Amelia  Peabody  Health  Professions  Center  ad- 
dition, with  its  well-equipped  laboratories  and  classrooms  for  both  un- 
dergraduate and  graduate  programs,  are  designed  to  anticipate  the 
physical  needs  of  a  growing  and  progressive  College.  In  addition  to 
faculty  and  administrative  offices,  a  Drug  Information  and  Resource 
Center,  a  data-processing  area,  and  the  graduate  school,  there  are 
laboratories  for  radioisotopes,  clinical  chemistry,  medicinal  chemistry, 
drug  analysis,  prescription  pharmacy,  hematology,  immunology,  phar- 
macology, respiratory  therapy,  medical  record  science,  and  clinical  mi- 
crobiology. Animal  rooms  and  audiovisual  capabilities  for  all  programs 


196  /  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  Professions 

are  also  featured  in  this  five-story  structure.  Research  facilities  are 
available  for  upperclass  students  who  participate  in  original  research 
projects. 

Transfers  with  Advanced 
Standing 

The  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  Professions  may  accept 
qualified  transfer  students  who  have  successfully  completed  one  or 
more  years  of  preprofessional  course  work  in  an  accredited  college  or 
university.

Bachelor  of  Science  in  Respiratory  Therapy,  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Tox- 
icology, Bachelor  of  Dental  Hygiene,  Associate  in  Science,  and  Associ- 
ate in  Science  in  Dental  Hygiene  are  awarded  to  qualified  candidates. 

Accreditation 

Each  of  the  programs  offered  by  the  College  is  accredited  by  the  appro- 
priate professional  group.  The  College  holds  memberships  in  both  the 
American  Association  of  Colleges  of  Pharmacy  and  the  American  Soci- 
ety of  Allied  Health  Professions. 


Health-Care  Curriculum 
Open  Option 

Students  interested  in  pursuing  a  career  in  the  health-care  professions 
who  are  undecided  as  to  which  profession  is  right  for  them  should  ex- 
plore the  Open  Option  offered  by  Northeastern's  College  of  Pharmacy 
and  Allied  Health  Professions. 

Aims  The  Open  Option  program  offers  freshmen  a  core  of  courses 
designed  to  provide  the  basic  scientific  background  required  for  each 
of  the  professional  programs  in  the  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied 
Health  Professions.  Students  are  also  introduced  to  the  basic  principles 
of  health-care  delivery,  health-care  agencies  and  services,  and  atti- 
tudes, behavioral  aspects,  and  policies  that  may  influence  health-care 
systems. 

The  Open  Option  is  especially  valuable  to  students  who  need  assis- 
tance in  determining  an  area  of  interest  within  the  health-care  field.  By 
examining  various  professions,  and  thus  gaining  an  overview  of  the 
discipline,  students  can  refine  their  health-care  career  goals.  They  may 
also  familiarize  themselves  with  what  is  expected  of  them  in  vahous 
health-care  professions.  Subsequent  selection  of  a  professional  pro- 
gram may  proceed  more  smoothly,  an  advantage  that  may  help  students 
gain  more  confidence  and  certainty  in  pursuing  a  degree.  Even  though 
in  the  Open  Option  students  consider  various  health  professions,  they 
still  complete  some  prerequisite  courses  required  of  all  the  professional 
programs  and  so  do  not  lose  valuable  time  prior  to  selecting  a  major. 

A  View  of  the  Plan  In  the  Open  Option  Plan,  students  may  complete 
the  core  courses  in  the  first-year  curriculum  without  selecting  a  profes- 
sion in  which  to  major  and  without  loss  of  valuable  time.  Upon  satisfac- 
tory completion  of  the  first  year  of  courses,  students  select  a  professional 


Dental  Hygiene/ 197 

area  in  which  to  major.  Professions  in  the  college  include  pharmacy, 
health  record  administration,  medical  laboratory  science,  respiratory 
therapy,  and  toxicology. 
The  courses  offered  in  the  first-year  Open  Option  include: 

—  Functions  and  Basic  Calculus 

—  General  Chemistry  I  and  II 

—  General  Biology 

—  Animal  Biology 

—  Freshman  Writing 

—  Introduction  to  Literature 

—  Professional  Dynamics  in  the  Health-Care  Delivery  System 

Satisfactory  completion  of  the  eight  courses  in  the  Open  Option  core 
curriculum,  as  well  as  other  courses  completed  during  the  freshman 
year,  is  necessary  for  admission  to  one  of  the  professional  programs  of 
the  college. 

The  Open  Option  Plan  does  not  apply  to  the  Dental  Hygiene  program.

Aims  Medical  technology  involves  the  application  of  principles  of  nat- 
ural, physical,  and  biological  sciences  to  the  performance  of  laboratory 
determinations  used  in  the  diagnosis  and  treatment  of  disease  and  the 
maintenance  of  health.  It  is  projected  that  the  demand  for  properly  edu- 
cated and  certified  medical  technologists  and  medical  laboratory  tech- 
nicians will  increase  as  a  result  of  greater  emphasis  on  the  quantity, 
quality,  and  efficiency  of  health-care  delivery.  With  educational  oppor- 
tunities available  in  hematology,  immunohematology,  clinical  chemistry, 
and  clinical  microbiology,  students  have  the  opportunity  to  prepare 
themselves  for  positions  not  only  in  a  hospital  laboratory  but  also  in 
research,  industrial,  and  governmental  institutions.  Related  co-op  work 
experience  in  hospitals,  clinics,  research,  and  industry  helps  prepare 
the  graduates  for  a  variety  of  positions  in  the  working  world.  Since  1976, 
opportunities  for  six  months  of  co-op  work  experiences  in  foreign  coun- 
tries have  been  available  to  interested  students.  These  have  been  an 
enriching  experience  for  the  participants. 

For  qualified  graduates,  additional  opportunities  may  be  found  in  lab- 
oratory administration,  education,  and  graduate  programs. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Major  Students  enter  the  College  in  the  Med- 
ical Laboratory  Science  program  (medical  technology).  The  College  of- 
fers a  five-year  modified  cooperative  course  of  study  leading  to  the 
degree  of  Bachelor  of  Science.  Upon  satisfactory  completion  of  the 
baccalaureate  degree,  the  student  should  be  eligible  to  take  national 
certification  examinations  in  medical  technology  and  clinical  laboratory 
science.  Some  states  may  require  additional  licensure  examinations. 

During  the  junior  and  senior  years,  qualified  students  are  assigned  to 
the  hospital  components  of  the  medical  technology  program.  To  qualify 
for  entrance  into  the  hospital  component  of  the  program,  students  must 
have  an  acceptable  grade  point  average;  have  successfully  completed 
all  University  course  requirements,  including  those  in  biology,  chemistry, 
mathematics,  and  medical  laboratory  science;  and  have  met  other  cri- 
teria established  by  the  Clinical  Studies  Admission  Committee.  The 
professional  courses  in  hematology,  pathogenic  microbiology,  serology, 
mycology,  parasitology,  clinical  chemistry,  instrumentation,  and  blood 
banking  are  included  in  both  the  University  and  the  hospital  components 
of  the  program. 

Students  in  the  five-year  major  who  decide  not  to  complete  their 
course  of  study  may  transfer  into  the  three-year  Associate  degree  pro- 
gram. In  addition,  through  the  Graduate  School  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied 
Health  Professions,  programs  leading  to  the  Master  of  Science  and  Doc- 
tor of  Philosophy  degrees  are  offered.

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  The  need  for  well-qualified  pharmacists  is  likely  to  continue  in 
direct  response  to  the  greater  emphasis  on  health  care  and,  in  particular, 
to  the  newer  and  more  diversified  utilization  of  those  now  in  practice  in 
this  country.  The  majority  of  pharmacists  are  associated  with  community 
practice,  and  some  of  these  are  self-employed.  Hospital  pharmacy  and 
institutional  practice  have  attracted  a  large  number  of  practitioners  and 
represent  the  fastest-growing  areas  of  the  profession.  The  increased  use 
of  the  pharmacist  as  a  drug  consultant  to  the  medical  and  nursing  staffs 
of  these  institutions  has  broadened  the  scope  of  professional  opportu- 
nity and  given  practitioners  even  greater  involvement  as  part  of  the 
health  team. 

Pharmacy  also  offers  careers  in  research,  manufacturing,  govern- 
ment, law  enforcement,  and  education.  A  considerable  number  of  our 
graduates  have  entered  leading  graduate  and  professional  schools.  An- 
other significant  trend  is  found  in  the  increasing  number  of  women  en- 
tering the  profession.  Approximately  60  percent  of  the  entering  class  is 
now  composed  of  women. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Major  The  College  offers  a  five-year  curricu- 
lum that  leads  to  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Pharmacy.  The 
curriculum  offers  instruction  in  each  of  three  natural  divisions;  (1)  arts 
and  sciences  courses  in  general  education  (the  humanities  and  social 


206  /  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  Professions 

sciences);  (2)  mathennatics  and  the  basic  physical  and  biological  sci- 
ences; and  (3)  courses  in  the  areas  of  professional  instruction — medici- 
nal chemistry,  pharmacology,  pharmaceutics,  pharmacy  administration, 
pharmacy  practice,  and  clinical  pharmacy. 

The  curriculum  offers  a  well-balanced  blend  of  academic  classroom 
and  cooperative  education  work  experiences.  Students  completing  the 
five-year  baccalaureate  pharmacy  degree  at  Northeastern  complete  up 
to  3,000  hours  of  combined  co-op  and  clinical  clerkship  experiences. 
We  believe  these  experiences  enable  our  students  to  easily  make  the 
transition  into  pharmacy  practice  upon  graduation.  The  classroom  ex- 
perience is  well-structured  and  allows  for  the  integration  of  the  students' 
cooperative  learning  experiences.  As  is  the  case  with  other  pharmacy 
programs  across  the  country,  the  curriculum  is  five  years  in  length,  but 
with  a  much  greater  practical  experience  base.  The  pharmacy  program 
maintains  close  affiliations  with  many  of  the  leading  hospitals  in  the 
surrounding  Boston  area. 

In  addition,  through  the  Graduate  School  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied 
Health  Professions,  programs  leading  to  the  Master  of  Science  and  Mas- 
ter of  Health  Professions  degrees  are  offered  as  well  as  the  Doctor  of 
Philosophy  degree  in  Biomedical  Science.  The  Doctor  of  Pharmacy 
(Pharm.D.)  degree  is  also  available  for  a  limited  number  of  qualified 
baccalaureate  graduates. 

Graduation  Requirements 

Degree  Candidates  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Pharmacy  degree 
must  complete  all  prescribed  work  of  the  curriculum  and  meet  the  re- 
quirements of  the  Department  of  Cooperative  Education  before  they 
become  eligible  for  their  degrees. 

No  student  transferring  from  another  college  or  university  is  eligible  to 
receive  a  degree  until  the  last  three  years  of  academic  work  immediately 
preceding  graduation  have  been  completed  at  Northeastern.  Excep- 
tions to  this  requirement  may  be  made  for  students  transferhng  from 
another  college  of  pharmacy. 

Graduation  with  Honors 

Candidates  who  have  attained  superior  grades  in  their  academic  work 
will  be  graduated  cum  laude.  Upon  special  vote  of  the  faculty,  a  limited 
number  of  this  group  may  be  graduated  magna  cum  laude  or  summa 
cum  laude.  Students  must  have  been  in  attendance  at  the  University  for 
at  least  six  quarters  before  they  become  eligible  for  honors  at  gradua- 
tion. 

Accreditation 

The  undergraduate  pharmacy  program  offered  by  the  College  of  Phar- 
macy and  Allied  Health  Professions  subscribes  to  the  standards  estab- 
lished by  the  American  Council  on  Pharmaceutical  Education  and  the 
American  Association  of  Colleges  of  Pharmacy,  of  which  it  is  a  member. 

Licensure — Pliarmacy 

Pharmacists  must  meet  certain  requirements  to  obtain  a  license  from  the 
state  in  which  they  wish  to  practice.  These  requirements  ordinarily  in- 
clude graduating  from  an  accredited  college  of  pharmacy,  passing  an 
examination  given  by  a  State  Board  of  Pharmacy,  and  completing  an 
"internship,"  or  apprenticeship. 


Pharmacy/ 207 

The  internship  is  a  period  of  supervised  practical  experience  in  a 
preceptor  pharnnacy.  This  is  generally  satisfied  during  the  cooperative 
work  periods  connmencing  at  the  end  of  the  student's  second  academic 
year.  The  salary  earned  during  these  periods  of  full-time  employment 
may  be  used  to  help  defray  educational  expenses.  Students  may  apply 
up  to  400  hours  of  the  required  academic  clinical  clerkship  experience 
to  their  internship  requirements.  In  addition,  a  college-directed  extern- 
ship  adds  to  the  total  practice-oriented  portion  of  the  curriculum.

Professional  Preparation 


Aims  Respiratory  therapy  is  an  allied-health  specialty,  instrumental  in 
the  diagnosis,  treatment,  management,  and  preventive  care  of  patients 
with  cardiopulmonary  problems.  These  patients  may  be  found  in  new- 
born nurseries,  surgical  and  medical  wards,  emergency  rooms,  out- 
patient departments,  and  intensive  care  units  of  hospitals.  They  may  be 
suffering  from  a  variety  of  acute  and  chronic  conditions  that  are  either 
life  threatening  or  disabling. 

Patients  suffering  a  multiplicity  of  disorders  may  require  supportive 
mechanical  ventilation.  With  the  assistance  of  sophisticated  ventilatory 
and  monitoring  equipment  designed  specifically  for  artificial  ventilation, 
respiratory  therapists  become  an  essential  part  of  the  critical-care  team. 
Through  proper  respiratory  care  and  management,  many  patients  who 
would  not  have  survived  are  now  being  returned  to  an  active  life.  In 
essence,  the  respiratory  therapist  is  a  life-support  specialist. 

In  the  hospital,  "Code  Blue,  Code  99,  Dr.  Heart,  Dr.  Pacemaker"  are 
all  calls  that  may  signify  a  life-and-death  situation  of  cardiac  and/or 
pulmonary  arrest.  The  calls  alert  respiratory  therapists  to  respond  as 
members  of  an  emergency  cardiopulmonary  arrest  team,  working  along- 
side physicians  and  nurses.  Respiratory  therapists  become  responsible 
for  life  support  of  the  patient  through  airway  management,  artificial  ven- 
tilation, external  cardiac  massage,  and  many  other  sophisticated  emer- 
gency support  measures. 

While  intensive  respiratory  care  is  essential,  routine  patient  care  is 
equally  important.  Working  under  physician's  orders,  respiratory  thera- 
pists carry  out  specific  therapeutic  measures  to  assist  respiratory-dis- 
tressed patients.  Respiratory  therapists  must  be  experts  in  providing 
and  recommending  specialized  and  selective  therapeutic  respiratory 
care.  They  must  be  competent  in  such  areas  as  medical  gas  administra- 
tion, including  oxygen;  humidification,  aerosols,  and  intermittent  positive 
pressure  breathing  (IPPB);  chest  physiotherapy,  cardiopulmonary  re- 
suscitation, mechanical  ventilation,  airway  management,  and  pulmonary 
function  studies;  blood  gas  analysis;  and  physiologic  monitoring.  Be- 
cause respiratory  therapy  procedures  may  alter  the  patient's  physiologic 
status,  astute  patient  care  and  observation  by  educated  respiratory  ther- 
apists are  essential. 

Respiratory  therapists  are  involved  in  the  treatment  of  cardiac  and 
pulmonary  ailments  such  as  cardiac  failure,  asthma,  pulmonary  edema, 
emphysema,  cerebral  thrombosis,  drowning,  hemorrhage,  and  shock. 

Medications  are  delivered  as  aerosols  through  mechanical  devices. 
These  medications  are  then  administered  through  the  airways  so  that 
they  may  act  on  local  areas  within  the  lungs,  as  well  as  be  diffused  into 
the  body's  circulatory  system. 

Respiratory  therapists  make  use  of  a  variety  of  testing  techniques  to 
assist  in  medical  research  and  diagnosis  of  disorders.  One  example  is 
the  use  of  radioactive  gases  or  aerosols  which  are  safely  administered 
to  the  patient  through  the  respiratory  system.  Various  portions  of  the  lung 


210  /  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  Professions 

may  be  screened  and  evaluated  for  obstructions,  restrictions,  and  other 
abnormalities.  The  most  common  diagnostic  examinations  are  the  mea- 
surement of  lung  volumes  and  capacities,  and  flow  patterns  and  pres- 
sures. 

Today,  the  field  of  respiratory  technology  is  expanding  rapidly  to  keep 
pace  with  the  demand  for  new  techniques  to  cope  with  environmentally 
related  problems  such  as  smoking  and  air  pollution.  New  techniques 
also  have  been  developed  for  use  in  the  treatment  of  respiratory  failure 
following  open  heart  and  other  types  of  major  surgery. 

A  View  of  the  Major  Students  enter  the  College  as  majors  in  the  Res- 
piratory Therapy  program.  Mathematics,  chemistry,  and  the  physical, 
biological,  medical,  and  health  sciences  offer  the  bases  for  professional 
instruction  in  Respiratory  Therapy.  English,  psychology,  and  elective 
courses  in  the  humanities  and  social  sciences  offer  a  liberal  arts  back- 
ground. Clinical  study  at  the  affiliated  hospitals  provides  the  opportunity 
for  direct  patient  care  and  the  immediate  application  of  highly  special- 
ized techniques. 

Degree  The  curriculum  leads  to  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in 
Respiratory  Therapy  and  includes  academic  quarters  at  the  University, 
a  structured  clinical  program,  and  assigned  co-op  quarters.  Successful 
completion  of  the  first  three  years  of  the  program  makes  students  eligible 
for  the  first  part  of  the  examinations  administered  by  the  National  Board 
for  Respiratory  Care. 

Two  accelerated  programs  in  Respiratory  Therapy  and  Cardiovascu- 
lar Perfusion  Technology  are  available  for  professionals  with  a  baccalau- 
reate or  master's  degree  who  are  interested  in  a  new  career.  Students 
who  meet  the  admissions  requirements  will  have  the  science  back- 
ground needed  to  master  professional  courses  in  the  curriculum.  The 
curriculum  allows  students  to  integrate  didactic,  laboratory,  and  clinical 
practice  courses  over  a  twelve-  to  fifteen-month  period  of  time.  Gradu- 
ates of  the  Certificate  Programs  are  eligible  to  take  the  National  Board 
Examination  for  Registered  Respiratory  Therapists  or  Certified  Cardio- 
vascular Perfusionists. 

Accreditation 

Both  the  degree  and  accelerated  programs  are  accredited  by  the  Com- 
mittee on  Allied  Health  Education  and  Accreditation  sponsored  by  the 
American  Medical  Association.

Toxicology

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  Toxicology  can  be  defined  as  the  branch  of  science  dealing  with 
poisons,  but  toxicology  is  not  restricted  to  this  narrow  definition.  Toxicol- 
ogists  do  much  more  than  simply  work  with  poisons.  In  its  broadest 
sense,  toxicology  involves  all  aspects  of  adverse  effects  of  chemicals 
on  biologic  systems.  This  includes  their  mechanisms  of  harmful  effects 
and  the  conditions  under  which  these  harmful  effects  occur  as  well  as 
socioeconomic  considerations  and  legal  ramifications. 

The  activities  and  contributions  of  toxicologists  are  many  and  varied. 
The  profession's  subdivisions  of  materials,  radiation,  and  veterinary  tox- 
icology illustrate  the  diversity  of  investigations  in  which  toxicologists  may 
participate.  The  toxicologist  working  in  the  biomedical  area  is  concerned 
with  intoxications  by  drugs  and  other  chemicals  as  well  as  the  demon- 
stration of  drug  safety  or  danger  prior  to  release  on  the  market. 

Clinical  toxicologists  may  be  involved  with: 

1 .  antidotal  treatment  of  poisoning 

2.  drug  abuse,  addiction,  and  detoxification 

3.  drug  monitoring  and  drug  interactions 

4.  teratogenesis  (drug-induced  birth  defects)  and  other  toxicity- 
screening  procedures 

Industrial  or  environmental  toxicologists  are  concerned  with  the  rec- 
ognition, identification,  and  quantitation  of  relative  hazard  from  occupa- 
tional or  public  exposure  to  toxicants.  This  concern  is  closely  related  to 
private  and  government  responsibilities  to  ensure  the  safety  of  workers 
and  the  general  public  in  contact  with  industrial  and  commercial  prod- 
ucts. 

Industrial  or  environmental  toxicologists  may  be  involved  with; 

1.  chemical  carcinogens 

2.  pesticides  or  other  "economic  poisons" 

3.  air,  soil,  and  water  pollution 

4.  food  additives 

Forensic  toxicology  is  a  hybrid  of  analytical  chemistry  and  fundamen- 
tal toxicological  principles,  and  is  concerned  with  the  medicolegal  as- 
pects of  the  harmful  effects  of  chemicals. 

Forensic  toxicologists  may  be  concerned  with: 

1 .  the  cause  of  death  in  postmortem  investigations 

2.  isolation  and  detection  of  toxicants  in  biologic  material 

3.  drug-abuse  monitoring  programs 

4.  medicolegal  aspects  of  poisoning 

The  faculty  of  Northeastern  University's  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Al- 
lied Health  Professions  feels  that  increased  concern  over  the  safety  of 
drugs,  chemicals,  and  cosmetics  in  the  human  population  and  in  the, 
environment,  as  well  as  new  legislation  regarding  toxic  substances,  ere-' 
ates  a  high  demand  for  toxicologists  at  the  Bachelor  of  Science  level. 


Toxicology  /  213 

One  of  the  College's  principal  goals  is  to  help  train  qualified  profession- 
als who  will  stnve  to  meet  the  health-care  needs  of  society.  The  concept 
of  an  undergraduate  degree  in  toxicology  is  brought  about  by  the  de- 
mands of  an  increasingly  complex  chemical  environment.  Currently,  few 
institutions  offer  B.S.  degrees  in  toxicology,  although  more  schools  are 
planning  such  programs.  Yet  there  is  an  estimated  need  for  5,000- 
10,000  people  with  bachelor's  degrees  to  act  as  technical  support  staff 
for  Ph.D. -level  toxicologists. 

Northeastern  University  has  created  an  innovative  program  in  which 
its  diverse  academic  resources  offer  training  to  this  new  breed  of  toxi- 
cologist.  The  core  curhculum  is  enhanced  by  contributions  from  the 
University's  Institute  of  Chemical  Analysis,  Applications,  and  Forensic 
Sciences,  the  Northeastern  University  Marine  Science  Institute  in  Na- 
hant,  and  the  Environmental  Engineering  faculty. 

Recent  manpower  studies  sponsored  by  private  and  federal  agencies 
predict  a  great  demand  for  toxicologists.  Although  a  need  for  toxicolo- 
gists existed  prior  to  1970,  the  introduction  of  numerous  federal  and 
local  laws  aimed  at  protecting  the  environment,  safeguarding  employ- 
ees in  their  workplace,  and  protecting  consumers  against  hazardous 
household  products  has  created  a  critical  shortage  of  toxicologists.  Em- 
ployment opportunities  are  being  created  in  industry  (chemical,  cos- 
metic, and  pharmaceutical  firms)  and  government  (for  example, 
Environmental  Protection  Agency,  Food  and  Drug  Administration,  Na- 
tional Institute  of  Occupational  Safety  and  Health)  as  well  as  in  police 
departments  and  various  clinical  settings.  Students  may  also  consider 
entering  graduate  programs  in  toxicology. 

A  View  of  the  Five- Year  Major  The  Toxicology  program  leads  to  the 
Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in  five  years  under  the  cooperative  plan. 
The  curriculum  is  a  combination  of  liberal  arts,  science,  and  professional 
courses  that  offer  students  the  opportunity  to  prepare  themselves  to 
practice  toxicology  in  a  variety  of  settings.  Required  and  elective  profes- 
sional courses  may  be  selected  from  Medical  Laboratory  Science, 
Chemistry,  Biology,  Sociology,  Criminal  Justice,  Computer  Program- 
ming, Mathematics,  and  Earth  Sciences. 

Toxicology  students  begin  their  cooperative  experience  in  the  sopho- 
more year. 

Degree  The  degree  granted  will  be  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Toxicol- 
ogy.

**Freshmen  in  the  College  of  Criminal  Justice  are  not  required  to  take  a  nnathemat- 
ics  course  in  the  freshman  year.  However,  if  need  for  compensatory  mathematics 
is  substantiated  by  a  diagnostic  examination,  students  can  elect  to  take 
C  MTH  1000  or  C  MTH  1010  to  prepare  themselves  for  C  MTH  1106  Fundamen- 
tals of  Mathematics  as  upperclassmen. 

** Although  the  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  Professions  does  allow 
C  ENG  1013  to  appear  on  the  permanent  record,  it  will  only  allow  C  ENG  1014  for 
credit.  Students  completing  the  C  ENG  1013-C  ENG  1014  sequence  will  have  to 
make  up  the  four-credit  elective  that  was  displaced  by  C  ENG  1013. 

iAIthough  the  Colleges  of  Engineering  and  Computer  Science  do  not  allow 
CMTH  1000  or  CMTH  1010  to  be  taken  for  academic  credit,  they  do  offer  a 
special  course  sequence  in  college  calculus  with  algebra  and  trigonometry 
(C  MTH  1120  and  C  MTH  1121)  for  engineering  freshmen  judged  to  have  defi- 
ciencies in  mathematics.  The  courses  involve  students  in  extra  hours  of  work  in 
algebra  and  trigonometry,  but  cover  the  same  material  as  do  the  regular  freshman 
calculus  sequences  in  the  Colleges  of  Engineering  and  Computer  Science.

University  College 
Alternative  Freshman-Year 
Program 

Program  Goals 

Students  in  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program  are  considered  reg- 
ular students  and  are  degree  candidates  with  an  undeclared  major.  The 
Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program  is  specifically  designed  to 
help  students  strengthen  their  basic  academic  skills  in  writing  as  well  as 
mathematics.  While  helping  them  gain  confidence  in  their  ability  to  do 
college-level  work,  the  program  also  offers  them  an  opportunity  to  con- 
sider several  different  areas  of  study  before  committing  themselves  to  a 
specific  major.  Through  the  combination  of  a  carefully  prescribed  curric- 
ulum and  the  attention  of  professional  counselors,  each  student  is 
helped  to  establish  a  program  suited  to  his  or  her  individual  needs. 
These  same  counselors  are  normally  available  on  a  continuing  basis 
throughout  the  student's  entire  freshman  year. 

Developed  in  collaboration  with  University  College,  a  division  of  North- 
eastern University  serving  students  who  seek  a  flexible  college  program, 
the  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program  has  a  proven  record  of  success 
in  assisting  students  to  develop  their  full  potential. 

Program  Structure 

Students  in  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program  begin  with  10-15 
quarter  hours  of  credit  in  their  first  academic  quarter.  In  their  second 
and  third  quarters,  students  accelerate  their  schedules  of  course  work 
to  take,  respectively,  1 4-1 6  and  1 6-1 7  quarter  hours  of  credit.  Students 
in  the  health  sciences  track  complete  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year 
Program  with  a  fourth  quarter  of  12  quarter  hours  of  credit. 

After  completing  the  prescribed  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program, 
and  achieving  both  a  cumulative  quality-point  average  of  1 .400  or  better 
and  specific  program  requirements  as  noted,  students  may  generally 
continue  their  degree  programs  within  University  College,  or  transfer, 
with  sophomore  status,  to  the  College  of  Business  Administration,  the 
College  of  Cnminal  Justice,  the  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health 
Professions,  selected  programs  of  the  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human 
Development  Professions  or  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences.  In  addi- 
tion to  the  cumulative  quality-point  average  of  1.400  or  better,  the  Col- 
lege of  Business  Administration  requires  a  1.800  average  in  five  key 
courses,  namely,  MTH  4113,  ENG  4009,  ENG  4010,  ECN  4601 ,  and  MGT 
4105.  Additional  program  requirements  for  students  desiring  to  be  ad- 
mitted to  sophomore  status  in  the  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health 
Professions  are  listed  in  the  Student  Handbook  for  Basic  Colleges. 

Faculty  and  Resources 

The  University  has  carefully  selected  for  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year 
Program  faculty  members  who  are  aware  of  individual  student  goals  as 
well  as  the  needs  of  students  working  to  adjust  to  a  college  program. 
Faculty  and  students  meet  in  small  classes,  usually  of  not  more  than 
twenty-five  students. 


218  /  University  College  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program 

As  members  of  the  program,  students  are  considered  regular  North- 
eastern University  day  students  even  though  they  have  unique  sched- 
ules and  a  distinctively  tailored  curriculum.  Therefore,  they  generally 
have  access  to  all  counseling  services,  physical  education  facilities, 
dormitory  arrangements,  and  extracurricular  programs  at  the  Univer- 
sity's main  campus  in  Boston. 

Alternative  Freshman-Year  students  are  encouraged  to  make  exten- 
sive use  of  the  up-to-date  programmed  learning  resources  available  for 
self-instruction  through  Northeastern's  Learning  Resources  Center  on 
the  Boston  campus.  For  additional  assistance.  Alternative  Freshmen  are 
also  frequently  referred  to  the  Academic  Assistance  Center  and/or  the 
Math/Writing  Center  on  the  Boston  campus.  A  third  and  very  important 
resource,  the  Counseling  and  Testing  Center,  is  also  available  to  stu- 
dents on  both  the  Boston  and  Burlington  campuses  for  personal  and 
academic  counseling,  as  well  as  for  vocational  testing  and  counseling.

Radiologic  (X-ray)  Technology  Program 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  The  radiologic  technologist  is  an  important  member  of  any  health 
care  team.  Combining  a  technical  background  with  extensive  training 
and  skills,  the  radiologic  technologist  is  trained  to  use  X-rays  to  produce 
a  clear  picture  or  radiograph  of  a  patient's  tissue,  bone,  or  organ  struc- 
ture for  evaluation  and  interpretation  by  a  physician.  Northeastern  Uni- 
versity's Radiologic  (X-ray)  Technology  Program  is  designed  to  offer 
students  the  opportunity  to  prepare  for  entry-level  employment  oppor- 
tunities as  radiologic  technologists. 

A  View  of  the  Program  The  Radiologic  (X-ray)  Technology  Program 
at  Northeastern  offers  a  combination  of  academic  preparation  and  clini- 
cal experience.  Enrolling  a  new  class  of  students  in  September  of  each 
year,  the  program  consists  of  lecture  and  laboratory  sessions  held  at 
Northeastern  and  periods  of  clinical  training  at  selected  radiology  de- 
partments in  Massachusetts  hospitals.  The  program  requires  twenty- 
nine  months  of  continuous  study.  A  two-week  orientation  period  is  held 
prior  to  the  beginning  of  classes  each  September. 

Degree  Upon  satisfactory  completion  of  the  program,  students  are 
eligible  for  an  Associate  in  Science  degree  and  to  sit  for  the  National 
Registry  Examination  for  certification  as  radiologic  technologists. 

Certified  graduates  may,  if  they  wish,  seek  career  opportunities  in  the 
diagnostic  and  therapeutic  environments  of  clinics  and  hospitals.  How- 
ever, they  may  also  explore  opportunities  for  employment  in  production, 
quality  control,  and  facilities  inspection  at  industrial  firms.  Certified  grad- 
uates may  also  decide  to  consider  a  program  in  radiation  therapy, 
nuclear  medicine,  or  ultrasound  technology,  or  may  choose  to  continue 
their  education  by  applying  for  acceptance  to  a  bachelor's  degree  pro- 
gram in  health  science  or  health  management.

Dental  Assistant  Program 

Professional  Preparation 

Aims  New  knowledge,  techniques,  equipment  and  materials  in  the 
health  sciences  require  an  ever-increasing  number  of  trained  techni- 
cians and  assistants  to  support  the  professional  health  practitioner.  This 


Dental  Assistant  Program  /  223 

is  especially  true  in  the  field  of  dentistry,  as  many  dentists  find  tfiey  can 
increase  their  effectiveness  by  employing  a  certified  dental  assistant  to 
work  with  them. 

Under  the  supervision  of  the  dentist,  dental  assistants  help  provide 
direct  patient  care.  Such  work  offers  a  number  of  rewards.  The  dental 
assistant  has  an  opportunity  to  participate  in  a  variety  of  interesting 
activities  in  a  stimulating  work  environment  and  is  often  responsible  for 
diverse  tasks,  including  development  of  the  interpersonal  skills  required 
in  relating  to  patients  and  in  caring  for  their  special  needs  during  office 
visits. 

Employment  opportunities  for  dental  assistants  are  highly  varied.  Be- 
cause dentistry  is  a  multiservice  profession,  the  dental  assistant  may 
decide  to  work  in  general  dentistry  or  in  a  specialty  such  as  oral  surgery, 
a  field  requiring  the  assistant  to  work  with  a  surgeon  in  a  manner  similar 
to  that  of  a  nurse  in  a  hospital.  Other  individuals  may  prefer  to  work  with 
an  orthodontist,  whose  diagnostic  treatment  and  laboratory  procedures 
are  directed  toward  the  prevention  and  correction  of  irregularly  aligned 
teeth  and  related  facial  structures.  Further  career  opportunities  may  be 
available  in  the  fields  of  pedodontics,  i.e.,  dentistry  for  children;  endo- 
dontics, which  involves  treating  the  inner  structure  of  teeth;  and  perio- 
dontics, which  is  concerned  with  the  tissues  surrounding  and  supporting 
the  teeth.  General  dentistry  and  dental  specialties  may  be  available  in 
private  and  group  practices,  public  health  and  hospital  dentistry,  dental 
school  clinics.  Veterans  Administration  and  armed  forces  hospitals,  and 
federal,  state,  and  community  clinics.  Other  opportunities  for  employ- 
ment include  dental  supply  companies,  insurance  companies,  and,  for 
individuals  with  experience  and  further  education,  dental  assistant  edu- 
cation programs. 

A  View  of  the  Program  Northeastern  University  offers  the  Dental  As- 
sistant Program  in  collaboration  with  Tufts  University  School  of  Dental 
Medicine  and  other  local  clinical  facilities.  The  program  consists  of  thirty- 
seven  weeks  of  full-time  day  instruction  including  lectures  and  laboratory 
sessions  offered  through  University  College,  one  of  the  ten  colleges 
which  together  comprise  Northeastern  University.  The  clinical  segment 
of  the  program  is  based  at  Tufts  University  School  of  Dental  Medicine 
and  at  other  teaching  clinical  facilities  in  the  Boston  area. 

Credit  The  Dental  Assistant  Program  includes  the  following  noncredit 
professional  courses:  Dental  Anatomy,  Biology,  Clinical  Assisting,  Ra- 
diology Theory  and  Practicum,  Nutrition,  Dental  Specialties,  Medical 
Emergency,  Dental  Laboratory,  Microbiology,  Histopathology,  Pharma- 
cology, Prevention  and  Plaque  Control,  and  Practice  Management.  Ad- 
ditional courses,  which  do  carry  college  credit,  are  required  in  English 
and  Clinical  Behavior.  An  elective  course  in  Word  Processing  also  car- 
ries college  credit. 

Students  who  successfully  complete  the  Dental  Assistant  Program 
and  pass  the  certification  examination  may  petition  to  receive  up  to 
twenty-four  elective  credits  to  be  applied  toward  the  Bachelor  of  Science 
degree  program  in  Health  Science  offered  by  University  College.  Stu- 
dents who  successfully  complete  the  program  and  pass  the  certification 
examination  may  also  petition  to  receive  up  to  thirty-three  credits  toward 
a  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Education  degree  in  the  School  and  Community 
Health  Education  Program  offered  by  the  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Hu- 
man Development  Professions  at  Northeastern.

Academic  Research 


Research,  whether  performed  in  the  laboratory,  library,  or  in  the  field,  is 
vital  to  a  college  education.  It  stimulates  all  participants  and  ensures  a 
thnving  academic  atmosphere.  Through  research,  faculty  members  as 
well  as  students  stay  abreast  of  the  most  recent  developments  in  their 
particular  fields.  Faculty  who  disseminate  this  knowledge,  through  pub- 
lishing, speaking,  and  teaching,  help  assure  a  university  education  of 
the  first  order. 

At  Northeastern,  research  and  scholarly  endeavors  are  taken  very 
seriously  and  are  actively  encouraged.  Each  year,  the  faculty  receive 
funding  for  an  ever-increasing  number  of  research  projects.  Sponsor- 
ship comes  from  a  variety  of  sources.  Federal  agencies,  private  industry 
and  foundations,  and  the  University  itself  all  contribute  to  Northeastern's 
growing  research  emphasis. 

While  much  of  this  research  is  carried  out  by  the  faculty  members, 
their  graduate  students,  and  post-doctoral  research  associates,  ample 
opportunities  also  exist  for  undergraduate  students.  Research  partici- 
pation can  be  included  as  part  of  regular  academic  programs,  as  spe- 
cially designed  independent  studies,  or  through  cooperative  work 
assignments.  Research  activities  are  encouraged,  and  are  limited  only 
by  the  student's  own  motivation  and  curiosity. 

Northeastern  University  has  numerous  distinguished  faculty  members, 
many  of  whom  have  received  prestigious  awards,  including  Sloan  Schol- 
arships, Guggenheim  Fellowships,  and  National  Institutes  of  Health  Re- 
search Career  Awards.  Faculty  members  lecture  the  world  over — from 
just  across  the  Charles  River  in  Cambridge,  Massachusetts,  to  across 
the  Pacific  Ocean  in  Sydney,  Australia. 

Additionally,  many  faculty  serve  as  United  States  government  consul- 
tants and  participate  on  a  variety  of  national  and  international  commit- 
tees. But,  because  Northeastern  considers  education  its  primary 
mission,  students  will  always  find  an  enthusiastic  and  accessible  faculty 
to  answer  questions,  solve  problems,  and  stimulate  enquiring  minds. 

Current  research  spans  almost  every  academic  and  professional  field 
and  is  not  limited  to  laboratory  investigations  or  the  "hard"  sciences. 
Every  department  of  every  college  at  Northeastern  carries  out  some 
basic  or  applied  research  projects. 

A  brief  summary  of  some  of  the  topics  presently  under  investigation 
by  the  faculty  and  students  follows.  Perhaps  something  here  will  spark 
hidden  interests  that  students  never  realized  they  had.  Students  desinng 
to  explore  the  opportunities  for  research  participation  should  inquire  at 
the  appropriate  departmental  offices. 

Arts  and  Sciences 

In  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  research  projects  reflect  the  diversity 
of  its  eighteen  departments.  Research  in  the  humanities  and  the  natural 
and  social  sciences  includes  studies  in  19th-century  Boston  architec- 
ture, the  Off  Off  Broadway  theatre,  biochemistry,  quantum  field  theory, 
and  infrared  spectroscopy.  As  part  of  the  College's  interdisciplinary  in- 
terest in  marine  sciences,  the  Marine  Science  and  Maritime  Studies 
Center  has  been  established.  At  its  Nahant  field  station  and  laboratory, 
faculty  and  graduate  students  carry  on  research  in  marine  chemistry, 
biology,  and  botany. 


230  /  Other  Schools  and  Colleges 

Engineering 

Research  in  the  College  of  Engineering  enconnpasses  some  of  today's 
most  important  technological  subjects.  Robotics,  telecommunications, 
signal  processing,  and  the  theoretical  aspects  of  computer  engineering 
graphics  are  some  of  the  major  fields  of  interest  within  the  College.  But 
not  all  studies  are  high  technology  oriented.  Indeed,  some  faculty  pur- 
sue projects  dealing  with  the  electrical  properties  of  human  blood  ves- 
sels, while  others  investigate  the  mechanical  characteristics  of  cement. 
These  seemingly  diverse  research  areas  do  have  one  thing  in  common, 
however:  they  deal  with  the  improvement  of  our  quality  of  life. 

Computer  Science 

Northeastern  University's  new  College  of  Computer  Science  represents 
one  of  today's  most  active  technological  fields.  The  research  interests  of 
the  computer  science  faculty  span  network  control  algorithms,  numerical 
applications  interactive  graphics  development,  design  of  data  base  sys- 
tems, artificial  intelligence,  and  the  software  aspects  of  VLSI  design 
systems. 

Criminal  Justice 

The  College  of  Criminal  Justice  is  one  of  the  few  institutions  of  its  kind  in 
the  United  States  to  study  crime  and  law  in  an  interdisciplinary  fashion. 
Lawyers,  social  and  forensic  scientists,  and  system  specialists  collabo- 
rate with  Criminal  Justice  faculty  in  research  activities  focusing  on  both 
crime  detection  and  prevention.  Some  research  directions  currently  pur- 
sued by  faculty  include  industrial  espionage,  private  security  systems, 
and  contemporary  terrorism. 

Law 

The  School  of  Law's  research  activities  concentrate  on  the  legal  system 
from  perspectives  encompassing  the  past,  present,  and  future.  Topics 
include  a  historical  and  contemporary  view  of  dispute  resolution  mech- 
anisms, and  the  ramifications  of  a  landmark  court  case  on  the  mental 
health  profession.  Law  school  curricula  also  come  under  investigative 
scrutiny. 

Boston-Bouve 

The  nature  of  research  in  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human  Development 
Professions  is  broad  in  range  and  diverse  in  approach.  Changes  in 
human  development  and  the  roles  of  the  teacher  and  clinician  in  facili- 
tating such  changes  are  topics  of  lively  interest.  Some  of  the  current 
research  interests  of  the  College  include  the  communication  abilities  of 
normal  and  hearing-impaired  individuals,  the  role  of  exercise  in  cardio- 
vascular health  and  disease,  the  relationship  between  age  change  and 
the  development  of  motor  and  cognitive  skills  in  children,  the  evaluation 
of  clinical  practice  in  physical  therapy  and  educational  practices  in  the 
schools,  and  the  examination  of  barriers  to  the  employment  of  the  dis- 
abled in  leisure  services. 

Nursing 

Research  interests  in  the  College  of  Nursing  are  being  directed  toward 
both  its  student  population  and  the  community  at  large.  A  longitudinal 
study  is  now  under  way  to  examine  predictors  of  success  in  the  nursing 
program.  Other  areas  of  interest  include  the  learning  experiences  in 
cooperative  education,  issues  affecting  women,  and  development  of 
leadership  skills  in  nurses  who  are  employed  in  middle  management 
positions. 


Research  /  231 

Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health 
Professions 

Research  objectives  in  the  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health 
Professions  have  important  ramifications  for  the  nation's  health.  Studies 
include  new  ways  to  analyze  antidepressant  and  anticonvulsant  drugs, 
improving  methods  to  diagnose  bladder  cancer,  and  clinical  applica- 
tions in  respiratory  therapy.  The  National  Institutes  of  Health,  the  Office 
of  Naval  Research,  and  the  Union  Carbide  Company  are  among  the 
sponsors  of  the  College's  work. 

Business  Administration 

Research  in  the  College  of  Business  Administration  is  partitioned  be- 
tween the  theoretical  and  practical  aspects  of  management,  human  re- 
sources, and  marketing.  New  approaches  in  corporate  practice  and 
academic  theory  are  being  realized  through  conclusions  reached  by  a 
faculty  examining  such  topics  as  high  technology  management,  small 
business  entrepreneurship,  and  foreign  investment  in  developing  coun- 
tries. Other  studies  concentrate  on  transportation  problems  in  the  United 
States,  government  regulation  in  industry,  and  technological  forecasting 
in  the  high  technology  industry.  Significant  work  is  also  being  done  by 
the  marketing  faculty  in  the  area  of  survey  research. 

Research  Centers  and  Institutes 

The  Cooperative  Education  Research  Center  was  established  to  ad- 
dress the  need  for  research  in  cooperative  education  and  to  respond  to 
the  information  needs  of  the  co-op  community  across  the  country.  To 
fulfill  these  objectives,  the  Research  Center  conducts  and  reports  a 
variety  of  research  studies  and  maintains  a  large  data  base  of  current 
information  about  co-op  programs  and  a  clearinghouse  of  articles  and 
reports  on  co-op. 

The  Research  Center  has  been  a  department  of  Northeastern  Univer- 
sity's Division  of  Cooperative  Education  since  1972.  Its  creation  was  a 
direct  outgrowth  of  the  University  establishing,  in  1968,  an  endowed 
chair  in  cooperative  education,  and  the  strong  national  interest  in  coop- 
erative education  that  emerged  during  the  late  1960s.  It  is  currently 
staffed  by  two  full-time  researchers  and  a  department  assistant. 

Northeastern  also  has  several  interdisciplinary  centers  and  institutes 
which  do  not  grant  degrees,  but  they  perform  a  variety  of  interesting  and 
relevant  research.  The  Barnett  Institute  of  Chemical  Analysis  and  Mate- 
rials Science  has  as  its  goal  basic  research  in  the  fields  of  analytical 
chemistry  and  material  science  and  its  application  to  problems  of  social 
relevance.  The  Institute  has  developed  an  international  reputation  in  the 
fields  of  chromatography,  mass  spectrometry,  amorphous  metals,  and 
solar-energy  storage  devices.  The  Center  for  Electron  f\/licroscopy  is  a 
self-contained  research  unit  that  utilizes  the  latest  scientific  equipment 
for  training  and  research  in  cellular  and  subcellular  structures.  The  Cen- 
ter for  Applied  Social  Research  is  a  University-wide  institute  that  deals 
with  issues  of  public  policy  and  social  research.  Projects  are  presently 
under  way  in  the  fields  of  criminal  justice,  public  safety,  mental  health, 
social  welfare,  and  education. 

Support  services  for  research  are  provided  by  the  University's  Office 
of  Sponsored  Programs,  the  Academic  Computer  Services,  and  the  Di- 
vision of  Laboratory  Animal  Medicine.

To  find  a  college  or  university  that  will  suit  personal  needs  and  inter- 
ests— a  place  where  a  student  can  learn  to  feel  at  home  and  make  sound 
preparation  for  a  future  career — is  a  goal  of  all  students  who  plan  to 
continue  their  education  beyond  secondary  school.  The  goal  can  be 
achieved  in  a  number  of  ways:  by  talking  with  enrolled  students,  faculty, 
and  alumni;  by  reading  catalogs;  and  by  visiting  college  campuses.  In 
fact,  a  college  campus  visit  should  be  high  on  a  prospective  student's 
list  of  priorities.  Northeastern's  Committee  on  Admissions  extends  a  cor- 
dial welcome  to  all  prospective  freshman  and  transfer  students  and  has 
planned  a  series  of  on-campus  experiences  to  make  a  visit  as  worth- 
while as  possible. 

The  Admissions  Conference 

Students  have  many  questions  about  Northeastern — its  programs  of 
study,  its  services  to  students,  and  the  Cooperative  Plan  of  Education. 
For  this  reason,  the  Committee  on  Admissions  sponsors  a  series  of 
Orientation  Conferences  for  students.  Offered  at  10:00  a.m.  and  2:00 
p.m.  on  Mondays  and  Fridays  from  October  1  through  May  1  (except  for 
legal  holidays),  these  conferences  have  been  most  successful  in  helping 
students  become  better  acquainted  with  the  University.  They  include 
comments  by  an  admissions  counselor,  an  informal  question-and-an- 
swer  penod,  and  a  multimedia  presentation. 

Special  sessions  are  also  held  in  the  summer  between  July  1  and 
September  1 .  Further  information  about  these  summer  conferences  may 
be  obtained  from  the  Admissions  Department. 

Guided  Tours 

Student-guided  tours  of  the  campus  are  usually  held  daily,  Monday 
through  Friday,  at  1 1 :00  a.m.  and  3:00  p.m.  The  admissions  conference 
and  the  tour  should  both  be  scheduled  in  advance  by  writing  or  calling 
the  Undergraduate  Admissions  Office  (617-437-2211).  The  opportunity 
to  visit  the  University's  facilities  and  to  observe  student  life  on  campus  is 
one  important  way  to  learn  about  Northeastern.  Commuting  students 
who  wish  to  visit  the  University's  Suburban  Campus  in  Burlington  are 
encouraged  to  do  so.  This  will  appeal  especially  to  those  whose  home 
communities  are  located  north  or  northwest  of  Boston. 


Undergraduate  Admissions  /  235 

The  Interview 

Although  it  is  not  required,  a  personal  interview  is  generally  regarded  as 
an  appropriate  opportunity  for  students  with  special  questions  to  meet 
with  an  admissions  counselor.  In  studying  the  secondary  school  record, 
the  counselor  may  discover  some  factor  that  ments  further  explanation. 
In  this  event,  the  applicant  may  be  asked  to  arrange  a  visit  to  the  Admis- 
sions Office.  The  interview  may  be  held  at  the  request  of  the  student  or 
the  counselor.  Contacts  with  Admissions  personnel  will  be  more  benefi- 
cial if  the  Northeastern  University  Bulletin  has  been  carefully  read  before 
the  personal  interview. 

Special  Note 

Northeastern  does  not  hold  Saturday  classes  for  students  in  the  Basic 
Colleges;  for  that  reason,  guided  tours  cannot  be  provided  at  that  time. 
A  weekday  visit  to  the  University  is  recommended.  However,  special 
Saturday  appointments  may  be  arranged  on  a  limited  basis. 


General  Requirements  for  Entrance 

An  applicant  for  admission  to  Northeastern  University  has,  ideally,  com- 
pleted a  challenging  secondary  school  program— a  program  that  in- 
cludes courses  in  English,  foreign  language,  mathematics,  laboratory 
science,  and  history.  Proficiency  in  a  foreign  language  is  especially 
important  for  students  entering  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences.  But  the 
overall  school  record  has  importance  in  itself,  both  as  an  indication  of 
achievement  in  subjects  critical  to  university  study  and  as  a  reflection  of 
a  wise  choice  of  electives.  The  high  school  transcript  should  provide 
clear  evidence  of  sound  study  habits  so  vital  to  success  in  higher  edu- 
cation. Candidates  are  also  encouraged  to  broaden  their  reading  out- 
side of  class.  The  student  who  can  communicate  ideas,  understand  the 
meaning  of  words,  and  write  effectively  is  at  a  distinct  advantage. 

Today's  high  school  students  have  had  the  advantage  of  many  inno- 
vations that  have  greatly  enriched  their  experience — independent  study, 
small  group  seminars,  research  projects,  and  off-campus  experiences 
related  to  community  service  or  future  vocations.  Northeastern  is  under- 
standably interested  in  the  growth  of  the  work/study  concept  in  many 
secondary  schools,  and  the  Committee  on  Admissions  looks  favorably 
upon  the  variety  of  these  worthwhile  experiences. 

Preparation  for  Study  in  Engineering,  Computer  Science,  Science 
and  Mathematics,  and  Allied  Health  Professions 

It  IS  only  natural  that  evidence  of  special  aptitude  and  the  highest  pos- 
sible level  of  preparation  in  the  sciences  and  mathematics  should  be 
required  for  entrance  to  certain  programs  of  study  offered  by  the  Uni- 
versity. Such  programs  include:

Applicants  are  encouraged  to  complete  a  full  sequence  of  science 
and  mathematics  courses  if  possible.  In  science,  this  would  usually 
include  a  full  academic  year  of  study  and  laboratory  work  in  biology, 
chemistry,  and  physics;  and,  in  mathematics,  geometry,  algebra  1  and 
2,  and  a  fourth  year  of  trigonometry  and/or  analysis.  Experience  has 
shown  that  applicants  to  programs  emphasizing  mathematics  and  sci- 
ence also  need  courses  in  the  social  sciences  and  humanities  to  be  fully 
prepared  for  advanced  study. 

Preparation  for  Study  in  Business  Administration 

Candidates  for  admission  must  have  successfully  completed  a  strong 
preparatory  program  in  high  school,  including  courses  in  geometry, 
algebra  1 ,  and  algebra  2.  While  mathematics  plays  an  important  role  in 
the  total  program,  strong  emphasis  is  also  placed  on  liberal  studies  to 
effect  an  intellectual  balance  with  liberal  and  appreciative  courses. 

Preparation  for  Study  in  the  Social  Sciences,  Teaching,  and 
Criminal  Justice 

Many  candidates  for  admission  have  enjoyed  their  greatest  success  in 
areas  other  than  mathematics-science.  Their  interests  lie,  quite  naturally, 
in  the  study  of  the  humanities  and  social  sciences.  Thus,  such  a  student 
may  choose  to  apply  for  admission  to  one  of  the  following  programs: 

College  of  Arts  and  Sciences*  In  addition  to  the  science  programs, 
the  College  offers  programs  in  Arts  and  Humanities  with  majors  in  Art, 
Theatre  and  Dance,  English,  Journalism,  Modern  Languages,  Music, 
Philosophy,  and  Speech  Communication;  and  in  Social  Sciences  with 
majors  in  African-American  Studies,  Economics,  History,  Human  Ser- 
vices, Linguistics,  Political  Science  (including  a  concentration  in  Public 
Administration),  Psychology,  and  Sociology/Anthropology. 

Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human  Development  Professions*     A 

strong  liberal  arts  background  is  recommended  since  graduates  will  be 
working  in  professions  requiring  an  understanding  of  the  behavioral  and 
social  implications  of  human  interaction. 


*See  page  17  for  additional  majors  offered  by  these  Colleges. 


Undergraduate  Admissions  /  237 

College  of  Criminal  Justice  By  its  very  nature,  the  program  in  Crimi- 
nal Justice  requires  a  strong  base  of  liberal  arts  study  before  profes- 
sional courses  are  introduced.  Applicants  for  admission  should  therefore 
demonstrate  the  ability  to  succeed  in  their  study  of  the  behavioral,  social, 
and  human  services. 

Entrance  Examinations 
(Freshmen) 

Research  clearly  indicates  that  the  best  single  predictor  of  college  aca- 
demic success  is  achievement  in  secondary  school.  This  factor,  together 
with  recommendations  from  the  school  counselor,  weighs  most  heavily 
in  the  evaluation  process.  Although  the  Scholastic  Aptitude  Test  and 
three  Achievement  Tests  of  the  College  Board  are  required,  the  Com- 
mittee on  Admissions  recognizes  that  these  test  results  do  not  measure 
such  qualities  as  determination,  imagination.,  and  leadership. 

English  composition  has  to  be  one  of  the  three  required  Achievement 
Tests.  Students  can  choose  the  other  two  tests  in  subjects  in  which  they 
feel  most  confident.  Students  whose  native  tongue  is  not  English  may 
substitute  the  Test  of  English  as  a  Foreign  Language  (TOEFL)  for  the 
English  Composition  Test.  No  single  schedule  of  testing  is  recom- 
mended, but  applicants  are  advised  to  take  subject  matter  tests  while 
they  are  currently  studying  those  subjects.

these  testing  programs. 

Advanced  Placement 

The  University  grants  advanced  placement  credit  to  those  students  with 
a  score  of  3  or  better  in  their  Advanced  Placement  Examinations.  Stu- 
dents may  take  the  examinations  in  the  following  subjects:  American 
history,  art  (history  of  art,  studio  art),  biology,  chemistry,  classics  (Virgil, 
lyric),  computer  science,  English  (composition,  literature),  European  his- 
tory, French  (language,  literature),  German  language,  mathematics  (cal- 
culus AB,  calculus  BC),  music,  physics  (physics  B,  physics  C- 
mechanics,  physics  C-electricity  and  magnetism),  and  Spanish  (lan- 
guage, literature). 

Applicants  are  required  to  take  the  Advanced  Placement  Tests  of  the 
College  Board  in  May.

College-Level  Examination 
Program 

The  University  cooperates  with  the  College  Board  in  its  CLEP  Program. 
CLEP  provides  a  national  program  of  five  General  Examinations  and 
forty-two  Subject  Examinations  to  evaluate  nontraditional  college-level 
education.  Qualified  students  are  encouraged  to  take  the  general  and/ 
or  subject  matter  examinations  of  CLEP,  so  that  college  credit  may  be 
allowed  upon  entrance.  In  general,  the  Committee  on  Admissions  ac- 
cepts the  score  range  recommendations  of  the  College  Board.  North- 
eastern University  has  been  designated  a  CLEP  Testing  Center.

Applying  for  Admission  and  Plans  of  Admission 

Entry  Dates 

Northeastern  University  admits  qualified  freshman  students  to  all  pro- 
grams in  September.  The  University  also  has  a  January  entrance  date 
for  most  of  its  programs.  Entrance  dates  for  transfer  students  vary  by 
program;  many  admit  students  at  the  beginning  of  each  of  the  four 
quarters. 

The  application  should  be  filled  out  properly,  signed,  and  forwarded 
to  the  Dean  of  Admissions,  Northeastern  University,  Boston,  Massachu- 
setts 02115,  together  with  a  nonrefundable  $25.00  application  fee. 
Checks  should  be  made  payable  to  Northeastern  University.  This  fee 
may  be  waived  in  cases  of  extreme  hardship  as  endorsed  by  the  can- 
didate's secondary  school  counselor  or  social  worker.  It  is  to  the  stu- 
dent's advantage  to  submit  the  application  for  admission  promptly. 
Students  are  also  responsible  for  making  sure  that  their  transcripts  and 
College  Board  scores  are  submitted  to  the  University. 

Program  Selection 

Many  students  have  difficulty  in  selecting  a  program  of  studies.  For  this 
reason,  the  University  has  introduced  flexibility  into  its  programs  so  that 
students  may  explore  alternative  fields  or  tailor  their  programs  to  per- 
sonal goals.  Freshman  candidates  have  to  indicate  a  choice  of  college 
and,  in  some  cases,  a  major.  In  Arts  and  Sciences,  Business  Administra- 
tion, Computer  Science,  Criminal  Justice,  Engineering,  Pharmacy  and 
Allied  Health  Professions,  and  the  School  of  Engineering  Technology 
(formerly  Lincoln  College),  students  do  not  have  to  make  a  definite 
choice  of  major  concentration  or  emphasis  until  the  end  of  the  freshman 
year  and  in  some  programs  until  the  end  of  the  sophomore  year.  There 
is  also  flexibility  in  choosing  a  major  in  the  teacher  preparation  program 
offered  by  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human  Development  Professions. 

Rolling  Admission  Plan 

Under  Northeastern's  Rolling  Admission  Plan,  decisions  on  admission 
are  made  as  soon  as  all  of  the  required  credentials  (including  first  mark- 
ing period  senior  grades  and  College  Board  test  scores)  have  been 
submitted  and  reviewed.  In  all  cases  of  acceptance,  candidates  are  to 
successfully  complete  their  senior  year  of  high  school. 

Students  should  note  that  enrollments  are  limited  in  some  programs 
where  the  number  of  applications  is  expected  to  exceed  campus  re- 
sources.

Deferred  Admission  Plan 

Accepted  students  who  wish  to  participate  in  the  Deferred  Admission 
Plan  will  be  asked  to  describe  the  activities  they  plan  for  the  year  pre- 
ceding enrollment.  Students  may  choose  this  plan  for  a  variety  of  rea- 
sons that  may  include  travel,  health  problems,  or  work.  Information  on 
the  plan  is  available  from  the  Department  of  Undergraduate  Admissions. 

Early  Admission — Juniors, 
Second-Semester  Seniors 

In  certain  cases,  students  may  enroll  at  Northeastern  prior  to  high  school 
graduation.  Such  students  may  enroll  either  in  September  or  January, 
thereby  reducing  the  time  to  complete  degree  requirements  by  one  year. 
A  special  form  provided  by  the  Admissions  Committee  requires  the  en- 
dorsement of  the  school  principal  or  guidance  counselor  for  early  ad- 
mission. Write  to  the  Department  of  Undergraduate  Admissions  for 
further  details. 

Carl  S.  Ell  Scholars  Program 

The  University's  Carl  S.  Ell  Scholar  award  provides  recognition  to  stu- 
dents for  their  high  academic  achievement 

Each  year  twenty-five  freshman  students  are  selected  for  this  aca- 
demic achievement  award.  The  scholars  are  awarded  full  freshman-year 
tuition  scholarships,  and  those  who  maintain  a  superior  scholastic  aver- 
age during  their  years  at  Northeastern  are  awarded  one-half  tuition 
grants  for  each  subsequent  year.  In  addition  to  receiving  financial  assis- 
tance, the  scholars  are  invited  to  join  the  Ell  Scholars  Association  in  their 
freshman  year.  The  association  endeavors  to  build  a  community  of 
scholars  within  the  University  by  providing  a  forum  for  intellectual  ex- 
change. Students  are  usually  notified  of  their  selection  before  Feb- 
ruary 1 . 

B.A.  or  B.S./Juris  Doctor  (J. D.) 
Degree  Program 

The  University  will  admit  a  limited  number  of  highly  qualified  freshmen 
to  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  or  Bachelor  of  Science  Degree/Juris  Doctor  ( J.D.) 
degree  program.  Freshman  students  accepted  to  this  program  have  to 
complete  their  undergraduate  program,  graduate  in  the  top  1 5%  of  their 
class,  and  score  in  the  top  20%  on  the  Law  School  Aptitude  Test  (LSAT) 
before  they  can  begin  the  Law  School  studies.  Students  who  are  ac- 
cepted as  freshmen  to  this  program  and  meet  the  above  criteria  will  be 
eligible  to  continue  their  studies  in  Northeastern  University's  School  of 
Law. 

For  more  information  about  this  program,  please  contact  the  Dean  of 
Admissions. 

Community  Financial-Aid  Grant 
Programs 

To  supplement  student  earnings  from  cooperative  education  experi- 
ences, and  the  University's  regular  student  financial  aid  program,  the 
University  has  established  a  number  of  special  community  grant  pro- 
grams for  disadvantaged  students.  In  all  cases,  students  have  to  be 
accepted  for  admission  and  complete  the  University's  application  pro- 
cedure for  financial  aid  (see  p.  255  for  complete  details)  to  qualify  for 
one  of  the  special  community  grant  programs.  For  additional  information,

Five- Year  Bachelor's/Master's 

Degree 

Cooperative  Education  Program 

Qualified  high  school  students  committed  to  reaching  a  high  level  of 
success  in  engineering  can  now  accelerate  their  progress  by  entering 
directly  into  the  College  of  Engineering's  Five-Year  Bachelor's/Master's 
Degree  Program.  This  full-time  program  allows  honor  students  to  earn 
both  degrees  in  five  years — and  at  the  same  time  gain  extensive  on-the- 
job  experience. 

The  BS/MS  program  is  offered  by  three  departments:  Electrical  and 
Computer  Engineering,  Industrial  Engineering  and  Information  Systems, 
and  Mechanical  Engineering.  The  program  incorporates  cooperative 
education,  enabling  students  to  alternate  periods  of  academic  work  with 
paid  employment  in  their  chosen  career  field. 

Students  generally  take  five  courses  per  quarter  and  must  maintain  a 
3.2  quality  point  average  to  continue  in  the  program.  All  students  begin 
with  a  basic  curriculum  that  includes  calculus,  physics  and  labs,  com- 
puter programming,  and  chemistry.  At  the  same  time,  study  of  the  social 
sciences  and  humanities  broadens  their  awareness  and  understanding 
of  the  spheres  in  which  they  will  practice  their  professions. 

For  additional  information,  students  should  contact  the  Department  of 
Undergraduate  Admissions. 

College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 

Students  accepted  for  entrance  to  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 
should  refer  to  page  21  for  the  description  of  the  four  tracks  students 
are  placed  in  by  the  College  before  beginning  their  freshman  studies. 

Alternative  Freshman- Year 
Program 

The  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program  was  developed  in  collaboration 
with  University  College,  a  division  of  Northeastern  serving  students  who 
seek  a  flexible  course  schedule.  This  degree-track  program  may  be 
ideal  for  those  students  who  feel  that  their  high  school  grades  and/or 
test  scores  do  not  reflect  their  true  abilities. 

This  program  is  specifically  structured  to  assist  students  in  making 
the  academic  and  social  adjustments  necessary  for  success  in  college. 
Working  with  a  counselor,  students  follow  a  prescribed  curriculum  de- 
signed to  meet  their  individual  needs  and  to  help  them  sharpen  basic 
academic  skills  in  writing,  mathematics,  and  reading  comprehension, 
while  gaining  confidence  in  their  ability  to  do  college-level  work.  In  ad- 
dition, the  program  also  permits  students  to  sample  different  areas  of 
study  before  committing  themselves  to  a  specific  major. 

The  full  range  of  counseling  services,  physical  education  facilities, 
dormitory  arrangements,  and  extracurricular  programs  is  generally 
available  to  students  enrolled  in  this  program. 

For  further  information  about  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program, 
see  page  21 7. 

Programs  for  Minority  Students 

Northeastern  University  is  committed  to  expanding  educational  oppor- 
tunities for  minority  students  of  high  academic  promise  and  to  enrolling 
a  student  body  reflective  of  the  diverse  ethnic  and  social  composition  of 
our  society. 

To  ensure  that  minority  students  have  the  greatest  opportunity  for 
success,  the  University's  African-American  Institute  provides  tutorial  and 
counseling  services  as  well  as  programmed  instruction.

Project  Ujima 

Project  Ujima  is  an  intensive  academic  support  program  for  students 
whose  earlier  education  did  not  prepare  them  adequately  for  the  college 
program  of  their  choice. 

It  provides  Project  Ujima  participants  with  a  variety  of  supportive  ser- 
vices aimed  at  developing  academic  skills  and  a  positive  attitude  to- 
wards learning  throughout  their  tenure  at  the  University.  Special 
counseling,  tutorials,  and  educational  workshops  comprise  supportive 
activities  of  the  Project.  Project  Ujima  is  an  academic  component  of  the 
African-American  Institute. 

Open  Campus  Courses 

Under  Northeastern  University's  Open  Campus  Plan,  qualified  high 
school  students  who  can  gam  release  from  their  schools  are  invited  to 
take  full-credit  courses  at  Northeastern  while  they  are  still  enrolled  in 
secondary  school.  In  this  way,  students  are  able  to  gain  a  better  idea  of 
the  collegiate  environment  while  they  work  toward  college  credit.  For 
further  information,  write  to  the  Department  of  Undergraduate  Admis- 
sions. 

Cooperative  Freshman-Year 
Program 

College  of  Engineering  Summer  Quarter  Each  June,  the  College  of 
Engineering  enrolls  a  limited  number  of  qualified  students  in  all  pro- 
grams under  a  special  summer  Cooperative  Freshman-Year  Program. 

Students  may  enter  Northeastern  University  in  the  June  following  com- 
pletion of  the  senior  or  junior  secondary-school  year  and  complete  the 
first  quarter  of  their  college  freshman  year  from  June  to  September. 

Graduating  high  school  seniors  then  continue  their  freshman  aca- 
demic programs  or  undertake  cooperative  work  assignments.  The  first 
cooperative  work  assignment  normally  occurs  either  in  the  winter  quarter 
(January  to  March)  or  in  the  spring  quarter  (April  to  June).  Under  special 
circumstances,  and  at  the  discretion  of  the  faculty  coordinator,  freshmen 
may  be  placed  in  September,  following  completion  of  their  first  aca- 
demic quarter.  After  this  work  assignment,  the  student  will  return  to 
Northeastern  and  complete  the  freshman  year.  The  exact  schedule  will 
be  based  upon  the  professional  judgment  of  the  Cooperative  Education 
Department  and  the  academic  progress  of  the  student. 

By  extending  the  freshman  year,  enrollees  have  the  opportunity  to 
defray  a  portion  of  their  first-year  expenses. 

Following  the  summer  term,  juniors  have  the  option  of  returning  to  their 
secondary  schools  with  credits  earned  toward  college  degrees  or  stay- 
ing on  at  Northeastern,  with  the  permission  of  their  secondary  schools, 
as  members  of  the  freshman  class.  Students  who  choose  to  remain  at 
Northeastern  then  have  the  opportunity  either  in  the  fall  or  winter  quarter, 
to  participate  in  cooperative  work  assignments  similar  to  those  held  by 
graduating  seniors.  For  additional  information,  write  to  the  Department 
of  Undergraduate  Admissions. 

Orientation  and 
Registration 

The  orientation  and  registration  program  officially  launches  your  aca- 
demic career  at  Northeastern. 

The  administration,  faculty,  and  many  upper-division  students  have 
planned  several  days  of  programs,  faculty  seminars,  meetings,  and  spe- 


242  /  Undergraduate  Admissions 

cial  events  designed  to  help  you  adapt  to  college  life  in  general  and 
Northeastern  University  in  particular. 

In  addition  to  participating  in  regular  registration  operations,  receiving 
class  schedules,  and  purchasing  books,  you  will  meet  with  the  dean  and 
faculty  members  of  your  college,  who  will  provide  information  concern- 
ing your  planned  academic  major,  courses,  and  career  goals. 

You  will  have  the  opportunity  to  attend  "how  to"  study  seminars,  i.e., 
study  successfully,  be  assertive,  make  friends,  etc.,  as  well  as  peer- 
counseling  sessions,  and  many  other  informative  events.  The  Depart- 
ment of  Cooperative  Education,  for  example,  has  planned  meetings 
regarding  job  opportunities  and  school-work  experiences. 

You  will  be  introduced  to  members  of  more  than  150  student  organi- 
zations, some  of  which  you  might  choose  to  join.  Guided  tours  of  Bos- 
ton's historical  and  cultural  centers  will  also  be  available. 

Skill  and  Competency 
Development 

Responding  to  a  growing  national  concern  for  the  improvement  of  basic 
writing,  numerical,  and  reading/study  skills,  the  University  extends  to 
freshman  in  several  of  its  participating  Colleges  the  opportunity  to  en- 
hance the  likelihood  of  academic  success  as  freshmen  through  enroll- 
ment in  compensatory  (i.e.,  development)  courses. 

Selection  for  such  course  work  is  based  upon  the  correlation  of  com- 
petency data,  derived  from  specifically  prepared  testing  procedures 
administered  on  campus  along  with  pre-freshman  academic  creden- 
tials. 

The  freshman  writing  sequence,  the  mathematics  sequence,  and  the 
reading/study  skills  course  each  bears  full  credit  in  participating 
colleges.  (See  page  216.) 

Instructors,  freshman  advisers,  and  the  Freshman  Affairs  Staff  of  the 
Dean  of  Students'  Office  are  ready  to  assist  involved  freshmen  in  achiev- 
ing success  in  their  endeavors. 

Special  Students 

A  limited  number  of  special  students  may  be  admitted  to  the  Basic 
Colleges.  Special  students  are  not  degree  candidates  and  must  meet 
criteria  set  by  the  college  to  which  they  are  admitted. 

Those  admitted  as  special  students  usually  have  completed  some 
college-level  work.  The  following  are  among  the  applicants  who  may  be 
considered: 

—  a  college  or  university  graduate  who  needs  additional  course  work  to 
prepare  or  qualify  for  a  graduate  program; 

—  individuals,  recommended  by  deans  or  program  directors,  who  need 
particular  formal  course  work  to  meet  professional  requirements  for 
certification; 

—  students  who  need  several  courses  to  complete  degree  requirements 
at  another  college  or  university,  provided  they  have  written  approval 
from  the  appropriate  college  dean;  others  who  are  recommended  by 
deans  of  the  colleges  to  take  courses  leading  to  regular  admission. 
In  such  cases,  special-student  enrollment  should  be  limited  to  one 
academic  quarter. 

All  special  students  will  be  charged  a  nonrefundable  application  fee 
of  $25.  Before  obtaining  and  paying  for  an  application,  the  potential ' 
special  student  should  consult  a  counselor  in  the  office  of  the  dean  of 


Undergraduate  Admissions  /  243 

the  college  offering  the  course(s)  desired.  Tuition  will  be  at  the  quarter- 
hour  rate  in  effect  at  the  time  and  must  be  paid  before  registration  is 
valid.  Special  students  will  be  admitted  to  classes  only  when  there  is 
space  available. 

All  special  students  must  obtain  approval  from  the  office  of  the  dean 
of  the  Basic  College  in  which  they  wish  to  enroll  prior  to  each  quarter's 
registration,  but  will  be  required  to  pay  the  application  fee  only  once. 

International  Students 

International  students  are  required  to  complete  and  file  the  regular  un- 
dergraduate application  at  least  six  months  before  registration.  They 
must  meet  all  admission  requirements,  including  the  standardized  tests 
administered  by  the  College  Board.  All  academic  credentials  should  be 
translated  into  English  before  being  forwarded  to  the  Department  of 
Admissions.  After  notification  of  acceptance,  students  must  pay  the  re- 
quired deposits  and  fully  complete  the  University's  Declaration  and  Cer- 
tification of  Finances  Form  by  the  date  specified  on  the  acceptance 
certificate  before  a  Certificate  of  Eligibility  (1-20  Form  or  IAP-66  Form) 
can  be  forwarded. 

All  international  students  participate  in  the  University's  five-year  co- 
operative education  program.  Only  students  in  the  College  of  Arts  and 
Sciences  may  petition  to  complete  their  degree  program  in  four  years. 

Northeastern  University  is  authorized  under  Federal  law  to  enroll  non- 
immigrant alien  students. 

Students  may  obtain  a  copy  of  the  international  student  admissions 
booklet,  IVIany  Tongues,  One  Language,  by  writing  to  the  Department  of 
Undergraduate  Admissions. 

English  as  a  Second  Language 
Proficiency  Requirement 

Before  being  considered  for  admission,  students  whose  native  language 
is  not  English  are  required  to  demonstrate  some  English  language  pro- 
ficiency. This  can  be  done  by  submitting  the  results  of  the  College 
Board's  Test  of  English  as  a  Foreign  Language  (TOEFL),  by  successfully 
completing  an  approved  English  language  course  of  study,  or  by  being 
currently  enrolled  in  such  a  course. 

Before  being  allowed  to  enroll  in  any  university  classes,  all  interna- 
tional students,  along  with  any  other  student  whose  first  language  is  not 
English,  are  required  to  take  the  English  Proficiency  Test  administered 
by  the  University's  English  Language  Center.  This  requirement  applies 
to  all  nonnative  speakers  regardless  of  the  length  of  time  they  have  been 
in  the  United  States  or  their  previous  study  of  English. 

The  results  of  this  test  will  be  used  to  assign  students  to  their  English 
courses.  Students  with  minimal  English  language  skills  will  be  assigned 
to  the  noncredit  Intensive  English  Course.  The  level  of  course  work  re- 
quired in  English  will  determine  the  student's  academic  schedule. 


Admission  of  Transfer  Students 

Students  wishing  to  transfer  to  Northeastern  University  may  request  ad- 
vanced standing  credit  as  upperclassmen  on  the  basis  of  acceptable

students  whose  native  language  is  not  English.  International  students 
must  obtain  authorization  from  the  Immigration  and  Naturalization  Ser- 
vice to  transfer  from  one  school  to  another.  Please  refer  to  page  243  for 
complete  information  for  International  Students. 

Orientation  and  Registration 

All  transfer  students  are  required  to  participate  in  an  orientation  and 
registration  program  scheduled  immediately  before  the  beginning  of 
classes.  This  one-  to  five-day  program  provides  transfer  students  with 
the  opportunity  to  meet  with  their  faculty  advisers  and  plan  their  course 
schedules.  They  will  also  meet  with  members  of  the  Student  Affairs 
Office  and  the  Cooperative  Education  Department. 

Students  should  bring  a  copy  of  their  official  Certificate  of  Acceptance 
to  the  Orientation  and  Registration  program.  In  most  cases,  the  certifi- 
cate will  list  each  course  (and  its  credit  value)  for  which  the  transfer 
student  has  received  credit.  The  total  number  of  credits  being  received 
will  also  be  listed  on  the  certificate. 

Students  will  only  receive  full  transfer  credit  for  courses  that  are  listed 
on  the  certificate  of  acceptance  and  for  which  a  grade  has  been  re- 
corded on  an  official  transcnpt  from  their  former  college(s). 

Transfer  credit  from  other  institutions  is  not  computed  into  the  North- 
eastern University  quality  point  average. 

Northeastern  University  uses  the  quarter  calendar  and  awards  quarter 
hours  of  credit  for  courses  that  are  successfully  completed.  Each  quarter 
hour  of  credit  is  equivalent  to  three  quarters  (3/4)  of  one  semester  hour. 


246  /  Undergraduate  Admissioris 

Most  Northeastern  courses  are  equivalent  to  three  (3)  sennester  hours  of 
credit  or  four  (4)  quarter  hours. 

In  general,  students  who  successfully  complete  48  quarter  hours  will 
usually  qualify  for  sophonnore  standing,  80  for  middler,  112  for  junior, 
and  148  for  senior.  All  upperclass  course  selection  for  transfer  students 
is  planned  with  their  faculty  advisors. 

Additional  information  about  transfer  policies  and  procedures  may  be 
obtained  from  the  Department  of  Admissions. 


Required  Deposits  from  Freshmen  and 
Transfer  Students 

If  the  Committee  on  Admissions  makes  a  favorable  decision  on  a  stu- 
dent's application,  the  student  will  be  asked  to  submit  a  nonrefundable 
tuition  deposit  of  $100  by  May  1 .  This  deposit  serves  as  an  indication  of 
intent  to  enroll  and  is  applied  to  the  first-quarter  tuition  account. 

Students  applying  for  entrance  dates  other  than  September  should 
carefully  read  their  certificates  of  acceptance,  which  will  indicate  the

General  and  Special  Health  Requirements 

Prior  to  registration  at  Northeastern  the  Lane  Health  Center's  Pre-en- 
trance  Physical  Examination  Form  is  sent  to  each  student  following  ac- 
ceptance. It  is  mandatory  that  each  accepted  applicant  return  this 
completed  form,  which  includes  the  medical  history.  This  examination 
requires  a  tuberculin  test  within  six  months  of  the  registration  date.  A 
rubella  titre  test  is  also  required  for  all  students.  All  students  are  required 
to  have  physician-documented  proof  of  having  been  immunized  against 
measles,  mumps,  rubella,  tetanus,  and  diphtheria.  The  rubella  vaccine 
may  be  waived  if  a  satisfactory  antibody  titre  against  rubella  is  demon- 
strated. This  information  must  be  forwarded  to  the  University  physician 
for  review.  Proper  health  clearance  is  considered  a  condition  of  admis- 
sion. 

Except  in  the  most  extreme  instances,  neither  physical  nor  emotional 
problems  are  considered  a  bar  to  admission.  In  fact,  we  actively  en- 
courage handicapped  students  to  become  part  of  the  University  com- 
munity. With  pertinent  information,  we  usually  can  make  the  adjustments 
to  college  life  smoother  and  supply  special  aids  when  needed. 

Sound  health  and  physical  fitness  are  especially  important  for  stu- 
dents in  the  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human  Development  Professions 
and  the  College  of  Nursing  and  are  required  by  their  nonuniversity  affili- 
ations. Candidates  for  admission  to  the  College  of  Nursing  are  required 
to  receive  special  health  clearance  prior  to  enrollment.  A  repeat  health 


247 


examination  by  the  Lane  Health  Center  is  given  in  the  third  year  for 
physical  therapy  students  in  the  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human  De- 
velopment Professions. 

Students  in  Medical  Laboratory  Science,  Radiology,  Pharmacy,  Nurs- 
ing, and  Physical  Therapy  are  required  to  have  a  recent  tuberculin  test 
prior  to  entenng  clinical  affiliations. 

A  tuberculin  test  is  also  required  of  all  students  prior  to  entering  their 
period  of  student  teaching.

Tuition  and  Fees 


Students  are  advised  that  tuition  rates,  room-and-board  charges,  and 
fees  are  subject  to  revision  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  at  any  time.  They 
should  also  note  that  the  freshman  year  consists  of  three  quarters  of  full- 
time  study.  The  Cooperative  Plan,  whereby  students  may  be  gainfully 
employed,  does  not  begin  until  the  sophomore  year. 

The  primary  purpose  of  the  Cooperative  Plan  is  to  provide  invaluable 
on-the-job  training,  but  it  also  can  help  make  education  possible  without 
the  accumulation  of  a  large  personal  debt.  Because  of  the  Plan — and 
the  University's  determination  to  keep  basic  expenses  as  low  as  possi- 
ble— many  deserving  students  who  might  not  otherwise  be  able  to  afford 
an  education  have  attended  Northeastern. 


Expenses  for  the  Freshman  Year 
(Three  Quarters) 

Tuition  for  the  freshman  year,  for  those  who  enroll  in  September,  is  pay- 
able in  three  installments  at  the  beginning  of  the  fall,  winter,  and  spring 
quarters.  For  those  who  enroll  in  January,  payments  are  due  at  the 
beginning  of  the  winter,  spring,  and  summer  quarters. 

Board-and-room  expenses  for  those  living  in  University-sponsored 
residence  facilities  vary  slightly  according  to  the  dormitory  to  which  a 
student  may  be  assigned.  These  costs  are  computed  on  the  basis  of  a 
seven-day-a-week  arrangement  and  are  also  paid  in  three  installments 
at  the  beginning  of  each  quarter.

tional students,  payable  upon  their  acceptance  at  Northeastern. 

Liability  Insurance 

Freshmen  majoring  in  the  Colleges  of  Nursing  (Bachelor  Degree  Pro- 
gram and  Special  Program  for  R.N.s)  and  Allied  Health  (Respiratory 
Therapy),  as  well  as  all  upperclass  students  in  Nursing,  Pharmacy  and

Payment  of  Tuition 

All  payments  should  be  made  at  the  Cashier's  Office,  248  Richards  Hall, 
or  by  mail.  Checks  should  be  made  payable  to  Northeastern  University. 
Beginning  with  the  second  week  of  any  quarter,  students  are  not  eligible 
to  attend  classes  unless  their  tuition  has  been  paid,  or  specific  arrange- 
ments have  been  made  with  the  Bursar  for  a  plan  of  deferred  payment. 


Tuition  and  Fees  /  253 

It  IS  the  student's  responsibility  to  ensure  that  all  tuition  and  dormitory 
charges  and  fees  are  paid  when  due.  If  a  bill  has  not  been  received 
prior  to  the  start  of  classes  each  quarter,  it  is  necessary  that  the  student 
come  in  person  to  the  Bursar's  Office  where  a  bill  will  be  processed. 

Any  discrepancies  in  billing  should  be  immediately  brought  to  the 
attention  of  the  Bursar's  Office.  If  there  is  a  billing  problem,  the  undis- 
puted portion  of  the  bill  should  be  paid  on  time  to  avoid  any  additional 
late  fees.  Failure  to  receive  a  bill  through  the  mail  or  to  pay  the  undis- 
puted portion  of  the  bill  are  not  justification  for  late  payment  of  amounts 
actually  owed. 

Deferred  Payment 

Deferred  payment  of  tuition  entails  a  fee  of  $10,  which  is  levied  on  all 
accounts  not  paid  by  the  end  of  the  second  week  of  classes.  To  arrange 
for  a  deferred  payment  plan,  students  must  contact  the  Bursar's  Office 
before  the  start  of  the  second  week  of  classes. 

Late  Payment  Fee 

A  fee  of  $100  will  be  assessed  for  failure  to  arrange  for,  and  make, 
payments  in  accordance  with  the  prescribed  regulations. 

Laboratory  Deposits 

Students  taking  laboratory  courses  should  be  prepared  to  purchase 
laboratory  deposit  cards  from  the  Bursar  as  directed  by  the  department 
offering  the  course.  These  deposits  will  be  charged  with  deductions  for 
breakage  and  destruction  of  apparatus  in  the  laboratory.  A  charge  of 
$1 0  each  is  made  for  extra  cards. 

Reserve  Officers'  Training  Corps 
Uniform  Deposit 

Freshmen  enrolling  in  ROTO  make  a  deposit  of  $35  to  cover  loss  of,  or 
damage  to,  ROTO  uniforms  and  equipment.  Any  loss  or  damage  ex- 
ceeding the  deposit  will  be  charged  to  the  student. 

General 

Students  in  the  College  of  Nursing  may  expect  to  be  assessed  fees  for 
clinical  laboratory  experiences.  Physical  Education  majors  pay  a  room- 
and-board  charge  for  a  resident  program  at  the  Warren  Center  in  the 
spring  quarter.  Recreation  and  Leisure  Studies  students  pay  a  fee  for  a 
one-week  term  of  camping  at  the  Warren  Center.  A  one-week  session  in 
winter  sports  is  optional  for  Recreation  and  Leisure  Studies  majors  in 
their  junior  or  senior  year  (at  a  cost  of  $1 75). 


Refunds 

The  University  provides  all  instruction  on  an  academic-quarter  basis,  for 
which  students  pay  at  the  beginning  of  each  quarter.  Tuition  refunds  in 
all  schools  and  colleges  may  be  granted  through  the  first  four  weeks  of 
a  quarter  only  when  specific  conditions  are  met  and  on  the  basis  of  the 
date  appearing  on  the  official  withdrawal  application.  (Nonattendance 
does  not  constitute  official  withdrawal.)  Questions  regarding  refunds 
should  be  discussed  with  the  Dean  of  Students'  Office.  When  approved, 
refunds  are  made  as  follows:

Rental  charges  for  rooms  in  University  accommodations  are  refunda- 
ble only  in  cases  of  withdrawal  prior  to  the  start  of  a  quarter  (except  in 
special  circumstances  so  adjudged  by  the  University).  The  $400  deposit 
is  not  refundable.  Board  charges  may  be  refunded  for  all  unused  por- 
tions when  the  food  identification  card  is  surrendered  to  the  Office  of  the 
Dean  of  Students  for  Housing. 

Overloads 

Tuition  covers  the  cost  of  each  student's  required  courses  for  a  quarter. 
In  addition,  a  course  worth  one  quarter  hour  of  credit  may  be  taken 
without  added  charge.  However,  any  other  additional  courses  will  be 
billed  as  overloads  to  the  students  taking  them.

Housing 


Northeastern  University's  location,  in  one  of  the  most  central  and  exciting 
sections  of  Boston,  offers  the  student  an  opportunity  to  participate  in 
many  cultural  and  educational  activities.  With  residence  halls  on  the 
Back  Bay  campus,  between  the  Museum  of  Fine  Arts  and  Symphony 
Hall,  the  city  is  at  your  doorstep.  Northeastern's  library,  student  center, 
and  athletic  facilities  are  nearby. 

Most  of  the  residence  halls  have  lounge  areas  and  recreation  rooms, 
including  color  television.  Pnvacy  and  a  quiet  study  environment  are 
encouraged,  but  students  must  recognize  that  residence  hall  living  can- 
not provide  the  privacy  and  quiet  they  may  enjoy  in  their  own  homes. 
However,  the  benefits,  as  well  as  the  occasional  inconveniences  of  living 
in  a  community,  may  contribute  to  personal  growth. 

A  natural  advantage  of  residence  living  may  be  the  increased  involve- 
ment in  social  and  educational  activities.  Students  are  encouraged  to 
join  the  committees  that  make  decisions  about  student  life. 

Full-  or  part-time  residence  hall  staff  reside  in  each  residence  facility. 

Housing  Application  and 
Contract 

All  students  requesting  University  housing  on  their  application  for  admis- 
sion to  Northeastern  will  receive  a  housing  application.  The  completed 
application  must  be  returned  with  the  $400  deposit  according  to  the 
instructions  provided.  Assignments,  which  are  made  on  a  first-come, 
first-served  basis,  are  mailed  as  long  as  the  deposit  is  returned  by  the 
established  deadline.  Fall  housing  assignments  are  processed  and 
mailed  during  the  month  of  August.  This  non-refundable  deposit  will  be 
credited  to  the  student's  first  quarter  residence  charges. 

The  freshman  contract  is  for  three  full  quarters;  upperclass  transfer 
students  must  file  applications  on  a  quarterly  basis  as  their  contract  is 
valid  for  only  one  quarter  at  a  time.  The  upperclass  deposit  is  $250. 
Contracts  for  summer-quarter  freshmen  are  handled  on  an  individual 
basis  in  accordance  with  the  student's  academic  schedule. 

l\/larried  Student  Housing 

No  University  housing  is  available  for  married  students.  However,  the 
University  does  maintain  listings  of  off-campus  rooms  and  apartments. 
These  are  available  at  the  Housing  Office,  104-106  Ell  Building.  Al- 
though the  Housing  Office  has  agreed  to  make  this  listing  available, 
we  do  not  inspect  or  endorse  the  advertised  property  or  space. 

The  Selection 

The  choice  of  housing  is  an  important  consideration  for  the  first  year, 
and  freshmen  are  encouraged  to  visit  Northeastern  before  making  a 
decision.  Tours  of  residence  halls  are  available  by  advance  arrange- 
ment with  the  Department  of  Admissions. 

Upperclass  and  transfer  students  may  live  in  residence  halls  or  apart- 
ments. Freshmen  are  usually  assigned  to  residence  halls  unless  avail- 
able space  exists  only  in  apartments. 

Most  rooms  are  designed  to  accommodate  two  students;  however, 
some  three-  and  four-person  rooms  are  available  in  certain  of  these 
facilities.  Some  residence  halls  feature  "group  areas"  that  house  from 
three  to  six  students  in  a  two-  or  three-room  area. 


256 /College  Expenses 

The  University  maintains  some  apartment  units  for  men  and  women. 
These  apartments  accommodate  up  to  four  students.  Assignments  are 
made  based  on  the  date  of  receipt  of  the  housing  deposit  and  applica- 
tion. Each  unit  is  fully  furnished,  and  the  rental  charge  includes  utilities. 

Off-Campus  Housing 

Arrangements  for  off-campus  housing  are  the  responsibility  of  the  stu- 
dent and  the  students  family  Though  the  Housing  Office,  104-106 
Ell,  has  agreed  to  make  a  listing  of  off-campus  housing  available, 
we  do  not  inspect  or  endorse  the  advertised  property  or  space. 

Fraternity  Housing 

Certain  fraternities  provide  opportunities  for  room  and  board  for  men  at 
reasonable  rates.  Information  regarding  these  housing  facilities  may  be 
obtained  from  the  Housing  Office,  104-106  Ell,  Northeastern  University, 
Boston,  Massachusetts  021 1 5. 

Cars 

Freshmen  living  in  residence  halls  are  not  allowed  to  have  cars  or 
other  powered  vehicles  on  campus. 

Upperclass  students  are  strongly  discouraged  from  bringing  cars 
with  them,  as  the  University  does  not  permit  overnight  parking,  and 
there  is  a  severe  shortage  of  public  parking  spaces  near  the  Univer- 
sity.

University  Food  Service 

All  students  who  live  in  University  residence  halls  are  required  to  partic- 
ipate in  the  University  Food  Plan.  Three  different  meal  plans  are  avail- 
able. 

Meals  per  Week  Cost  per  Quarter

Food  Plan;  however,  they  may  choose  one  of  the  meal  plans  if  they  wish. 
When  conditions  warrant,  such  as  during  weekends  and  slow  periods, 
the  University  may  close  or  consolidate  certain  dining  facilities. 

Security 

Security  for  the  residence  facilities  is  provided  by  trained  University 
police  officers.  In  addition,  residents  are  required  to  show  appropriate 
identification  to  the  security  proctor  when  entering  the  residence  hall. 
Guests,  both  male  and  female,  must  sign  in  with  the  proctor. 

The  University  police  provide  escort  service  for  students  who  wish  to 
go  from  one  section  of  the  campus  to  another  late  at  night. 


Financial  Assistance

Financial  Aid 

Charles  M.  Devlin,  M.Ed.,  Dean  of  Student  Financial  Services 

Financial  assistance  in  the  form  of  loans,  grants,  and  work-study  is  avail- 
able on  an  annual  basis  to  qualified  students.  Undergraduate  financial 
aid  funds  are  administered  in  accordance  with  a  nationally  established 
policy  and  philosophy  of  financial  aid  for  students  pursuing  a  degree  in 
higher  education.  It  is  a  basic  premise  of  this  policy  that  parents  have 
an  obligation  to  pay  for  the  education  of  their  children  to  the  extent  that 
they  are  able  to  do  so.  In  addition,  students  are  expected  to  contribute 
to  their  educational  cost  from  summer  and  co-op  earnings,  outside 
agency  awards,  their  own  assets,  and  other  resources  they  may  have. 
Financial  aid  is  available  only  for  meeting  the  difference  between  the 
total  family  contnbution  (parents'  and  student's  contribution)  and  the 
annual  educational  costs.  The  parents'  contribution  is  determined  by  an 
objective  analysis  of  the  family's  financial  state;  net  income,  number  of 
dependents,  allowable  expenses,  indebtedness,  and  assets.  Criteria 
established  by  the  College  Scholarship  Service  are  used  in  making  the 
evaluation. 

The  University  does  not  award  any  form  of  financial  assistance  to 
students  who  are  not  citizens  or  eligible  permanent  residents  of  the 
United  States.

cational expenses.  Students  generally  work  part-time  while  attending  classes.

cepted for  entrance  may  receive  Supplementary  Educational  Opportunity  Grants

accepted  for  a  course  of  study  leading  to  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in

borrow  as  much  as  $2,500  per  academic  year.  Repayment  of  principal  and  inter- 
est does  not  begin  until  one  year  after  the  student  ceases  to  pursue  a  full-time 
course  of  study.  Repayment  of  principal  may  be  extended  over  a  ten-year  period

academic  work  load  may  borrow  from  a  participating  bank  or  other  financial

dependent  undergraduates  to  borrow  a  maximum  of  $2,500  per  year,  up  to  a 
total  of  $12,500,  for  undergraduate  study.  The  federal  government  pays  the  inter- 
est while  the  student  is  in  school.  The  student  must  begin  repaying  the  pnncipal

institutions,  although  terms  and  availability  vary  from  state  to  state.  Unlike  the 
Guaranteed  Student  Loans,  the  PLUS  loans  require  parents  to  begin  repayment 
of  the  loan  (with  12  percent  interest)  within  60  days  of  receiving  the  loan.  Repay- 
ment may  be  stretched  out  over  ten  years,  as  long  as  the  minimum  monthly

Election  to  the  college  honor  societies  is  based  primarily  upon  schol- 
arship, but,  before  a  man  or  woman  is  privileged  to  wear  the  honor 
society  insignia,  there  must  be  evidence  of  an  integrity  of  character  and 
an  interest  in  the  extracurricular  life  of  the  University.  The  societies  have 
memberships  consisting  of  the  outstanding  men  and  women  in  the  col- 
leges. Election  to  an  honor  society  is  the  highest  honor  that  can  be 
conferred  upon  an  undergraduate.

University  Libraries 


Alan  R.  Benenfeld,  B.Met.E.,  M.L.S.,  M.S.,  Dean  and  Director 

Together,  the  collections,  services,  staff,  and  facilities  of  the  Northeast- 
ern University  Libraries  provide  access  to  information,  and  an  under- 
standing of  the  organization  of  the  literature  and  other  information 
resources  of  the  academic  disciplines.  In  so  doing,  the  Library  is  integral 
to  the  academic  and  research  processes,  whether  these  occur  in  a 
formal  classroom,  seminar,  or  laboratory  setting  or  through  individual 
study  and  enrichment. 


Libraries 


The  University  Libraries  include  seven  facilities  of  which  Dodge,  on  the 
Boston  campus,  is  the  main  library.  Dodge  houses  the  materials  that 
support  the  University's  programs  in  the  humanities,  social  sciences, 
fine  arts,  education,  engineering,  criminal  justice,  nursing,  business,  and 
at  the  undergraduate  level,  in  the  sciences. 

Also  located  on  the  Boston  campus  are  three  libraries  which  house 
graduate-level  collections  in  physics  and  electrical  engineering,  in  math- 
ematics and  psychology,  and  in  chemistry,  biology,  pharmacy,  and  allied 
health.  In  addition,  there  are  three  libraries  that  support  the  academic 
programs  at  the  Burlington  and  Dedham  campuses  and  at  the  Marine 
Science  Institute  in  Nahant. 

The  University  is  presently  planning  a  new  central  library  for  the  Bos- 
ton campus.  It  will  more  than  double  the  amount  of  space  available  to 
house  and  use  the  library's  collections  and  services  and  for  study.  This 
new  facility  is  being  designed  to  incorporate  the  latest  online,  telecom- 
munications and  media  technologies  into  all  library  services. 


Collections 


The  total  holdings  of  the  University  Libraries  include  the  equivalent  of 
more  than  one  million  volumes  in  print  and  in  microform,  and  current 
subscriptions  to  approximately  4,000  periodical  and  newspaper  titles. 
The  Library  also  collects  other  types  of  materials  such  as  scores,  tech- 
nical reports,  government  documents,  and  audiovisual  resources. 

The  collections  are  especially  strong  in  the  sciences,  engineering, 
business,  criminal  justice,  and  nursing.  Among  the  many  special  series 
available  in  microformat  are  important  collections  in  anthropology,  edu- 
cation, government,  history,  literature,  and  business.  In  addition  to  a 
large  reference  collection  in  Dodge,  there  are  specialized  reference 
collections  in  each  of  the  libranes. 

Dodge  Library  is  a  federal  depository  and  actively  maintains  over 
250,000  documents,  reports,  and  other  publications  made  available 
through  the  U.S.  Government  Pnnting  Office.  Strengths  of  the  docu- 
ments collection  include  Congressional  hearings  and  reports,  census 
materials,  and  publications  issued  by  the  Departments  of  Commerce, 
Justice,  Health  and  Human  Services,  and  Housing  and  Urban  Develop- 
ment. 

Language  and  music  listening  laboratories  are  made  available  in  the 
Learning  Resources  Center.  The  Center  provides  a  wide  range  of  self- 
paced  media  and  computer-related  resources  including  programmed 
texts,  filmstrips,  audiotapes,  videotapes,  cassettes,  recordings,  and  mi- 
crocomputers. 


Student  Support  Services  and  Resources  /  297 

A  special  collection  on  international  aspects  of  higher  education  is 
housed  in  the  Center  for  International  Higher  Education  Documen- 
tation (CIHED).  The  CIHED  collection  is  unique  to  the  Boston  area. 

The  University  Archives  serves  as  a  depository  for  the  historical 
records  of  the  University.  Faculty  publications  as  well  as  student  year- 
books, newspapers,  and  Northeastern  dissertations  are  also  housed  in 
the  Archives. 

Services 

Library  staff  are  available  in  all  service  areas  to  assist  students  in  both 
retrieving  and  using  the  resources  in  the  University  Libraries.  Computer 
printouts  located  at  various  service  areas  may  be  consulted  to  determine 
if  a  book  is  checked  out,  on  order,  on  reserve,  or  in  storage.  The  circu- 
lation staff  provide  a  search  service  for  students  who  are  unable  to 
locate  a  book  on  the  shelf. 

A  series  of  publications  are  prepared  by  the  library  staff  to  acquaint 
students  with  the  collections  in  the  University  Libraries  and  to  help  stu- 
dents with  their  research.  These  include  short  guides  to  types  of  re- 
sources, such  as  encyclopedias  and  periodicals,  to  resources  in 
particular  disciplines,  such  as  economics  and  nursing,  or  in  specific 
subjects,  such  as  science  fiction  and  Caribbean  music. 

In  each  unit  of  the  University  Libraries,  librarians  provide  reference 
assistance.  In  addition,  librarians  provide  instruction  to  groups  and  to 
individuals  on  the  bibliographic  research  process  and  on  strategies  for 
locating  and  using  library  resources.  Each  quarter,  a  series  of  tutorials 
is  offered  giving  students  further  opportunities  to  meet  with  a  librarian  to 
discuss  particular  or  specialized  research  needs. 

Peer  tutoring  in  academic  subjects,  such  as  physics  is  coordinated 
by  the  staff  in  the  Learning  Resources  Center.  Computer-assisted  in- 
struction and  tutoring,  particularly  in  the  areas  of  chemistry  and  mathe- 
matics, is  available  through  the  Center's  Assessment  Tutoring  and 
Enrichment  Resources  program.  All  tutoring  services  arranged  through 
the  University  Libraries  are  provided  at  no  cost  to  the  student. 

Online  retrieval  of  bibliographic  citations  using  commercial  databases 
is  provided,  for  a  fee,  through  the  Library's  Computer  Search  Services. 
Citations  to  information  in  the  databases  typically  cover  journal  articles, 
dissertations,  technical  reports,  and  symposia. 

A  variety  of  finding  aids,  such  as  union  lists  of  serials,  are  available  in 
each  library  for  consultation  should  needed  materials  not  be  in  the  col- 
lections of  the  University  Libraries.  Assistance  in  using  such  aids  is 
available  from  staff;  in  addition,  Interlibrary  Loan  staff  may  also  conduct 
a  computenzed  location  search.  Subject  to  certain  conditions,  Interli- 
brary Loan  staff  may  be  able  to  borrow  material  from  another  library. 

Boston  Library  Consortium 

Northeastern  University  is  a  member  of  the  Boston  Library  Consortium, 
a  cooperative  arrangement  among  the  following  academic  and  research 
institutions:  Boston  College,  Boston  Public  Library,  Boston  University, 
Brandeis,  MIT,  the  State  Library  of  Massachusetts,  Tufts  University,  the 
University  of  Massachusetts  (Amherst,  Boston,  and  Worcester  cam- 
puses), and  Wellesley  College.  The  University's  membership  in  the  Bos- 
ton Library  Consortium  generally  allows  for  on-site  use  by,  but  does  not 
grant  borrowing  privileges  to,  students  at  Northeastern.  Some  of  the 
Consortium  libraries  and  many  of  the  other  libraries  in  the  Boston  area 
require  that  a  visiting  student  present  a  special  pass  or  letter  of  introduc- 
tion. A  reference  librarian  can  advise  about  such  student  visitor  policies.

Freshman  Orientation  Programs 

Except  for  the  visits  students  will  make  to  the  Admissions  Office,  the  first 
opportunity  to  learn  about  Northeastern  and  to  meet  classmates,  admin- 
istrators, faculty  members,  and  advisers  will  come  during  the  freshman 
orientation  period. 

The  program  for  orientation  is  planned  and  supervised  by  the  Director 
of  Orientation  who  will  see  to  it  that  students  are  introduced  to  the  cus- 
toms and  people  that  make  up  the  University.  At  that  time,  registration, 
class  schedules,  and  other  procedures  and  details  necessary  for  enroll- 
ment will  be  completed. 

During  the  orientation  period,  in  accordance  with  a  long-standing  tra- 
dition, students  will  be  welcomed  by  the  President  at  a  special  convo- 
cation. They  also  will  be  able  to  meet  with  deans  and  others  who  will 
have  important  roles  in  their  college  careers. 

Upperclass  students  generously  volunteer  their  time  to  assist  in  set- 
ting up  and  running  programs  that  provide  opportunities  for  relaxation, 
recreation,  and  cultural  enrichment.  Members  of  the  Dean  of  Students' 
staff  are  available  during  the  orientation  period  and  throughout  the  year

Office  of  Freshman  Affairs 

Anthony  J.  Bajdek,  M.A.,  Associate  Dean  and  Director 

The  Office  of  Freshman  Affairs  bears  particular  responsibility  for  moni- 
toring and  facilitating  the  academic  progress  of  freshmen  by  providing 
academic  and  personal  counseling  and  appropriate  administrative  ac- 
tion. Freshman  Affairs  applies  academic  policy,  authorizes  changes  of 
major  (both  within  and  between  colleges),  and  prepares  special  course 
schedules  for  students  who  change  their  majors,  as  well  as  for  those 
with  advanced  placement  or  advanced  standing  credit.  In  addition,  the 
Office  of  Freshman  Affairs  surveys  the  academic  status  of  all  freshmen. 

The  staff  identifies  freshmen  with  deficient  academic  records  for  aca- 
demic probation,  authorizes  summer  corrective  work,  and  reenters  eli- 
gible students  at  the  freshman  level.  Midway  through  each  academic 
quarter,  a  computer-based  Interim  Academic  Status  Report  system,  in- 
volving progress  reports  prepared  by  instructors  of  freshmen,  provides 
detailed  evaluations  for  use  by  students  and  the  180  faculty  who  serve 
as  their  advisers.  This  evaluation  is  a  preventive  measure,  designed  to 
help  detect  and  correct  potentially  failing  freshmen. 

To  support  the  academic  progress  of  freshmen,  the  Office  of  Fresh- 
man Affairs  manages  the  freshman  advisory  system,  and  conducts  ap- 
propriate research  to  measure  the  success  of  specific  academic 
support  activities. 

When  students  complete  the  three  academic  quarters  of  the  freshman 
year,  the  Office  of  Freshman  Affairs  reviews  their  academic  records  to 
determine  eligibility  for  sophomore  status.

Academic  Computer  Services 

Robert  J.  Fitzpatrick,  B.S.,  Acting  Director 

Over  the  past  few  years  the  use  of  computers  in  scientific,  business,  and 
educational  environments  has  been  changing  dramatically.  First, 
punched  cards  were  widely  replaced  by  interactive  video  terminals;  then 
personal  computers  vastly  increased  the  number  of  people  who  have 
access  to,  and  routinely  use,  computers.  Of  late,  these  personal  com- 
puters have  become  more  and  more  powerful  at  an  ever  decreasing 
cost. 

Academic  Computer  Services,  located  in  the  basement  of  Richards 
Hall  (telephone:  437-2334),  supports  the  research  activities  of  faculty, 
research  personnel,  and  graduate  students,  as  well  as  teaching  and 
learning  activities  at  both  the  graduate  and  undergraduate  levels.  The 
computational  capability  of  this  facility  includes  200  IBM  personal  com- 
puters, linked  in  local  area  networks  at  the  Boston,  Burlington,  and  Ded- 
ham  campuses.  A  wide  area  network  also  provides  both  students  and 
faculty  with  time-sharing  access  to  five  large  computers  through  video 
and  hard-copy  terminals  arranged  in  clusters  at  all  three  campuses.  The 
wide  area  network  connects  three  Digital  Equipment  Corporation  VAX- 
11/780  systems  in  Richards  Hall  plus  an  additional  VAX  11/785  and  a 
Data  General  MV/8000  in  the  Engineering  Computer  Center.  This  net- 
work also  provides  access  through  a  number  of  dial-in  telephone  lines, 
primarily  for  faculty  use,  to  all  five  computers.

The  International  Student  Office  provides  a  wide  variety  of  services  for 
the  more  than  2,000  foreign  undergraduates,  graduates,  and  faculty  at 
Northeastern.  Specific  services  range  from  counseling  international  stu- 
dents regarding  immigration  regulations  and  academic,  financial,  and 
personal  concerns,  to  issuing  forms  and  official  documents  which  stu- 
dents use  to  transfer  funds  from  home  and  travel  outside  the  United 
States. 

The  ISO  is  also  a  center  for  international  student  activities  and  spon- 
sors such  events  as  ski  trips,  dinners,  tours,  picnics,  and  an  International 
Week  in  the  Spring.  It  also  publishes  a  quarterly  newsletter. 

The  ISO  strives  to  promote  cultural  understanding  among  international 
students  and  Americans  by  presenting  cross-cultural  communication 
workshops,  orientation  programs,  and  activities.  The  ISO  also  acts  as  a 
liaison  between  the  various  departments  and  colleges  and  the  many 
different  public  and  private  agencies  which  have  concern  for  the  affairs 
of  foreign  nationals  in  the  academic  community. 


International  Student  Information 

The  University  welcomes  qualified  students  from  foreign  lands  who  are 
adequately  prepared  to  benefit  from  the  educational,  cultural,  and  social 
opportunities  it  has  to  offer.  Currently,  over  2,000  international  students 
from  106  different  countries  attend  Northeastern. 

Northeastern  University  is  authorized  under  federal  law  to  enroll  non- 
immigrant aliens  as  full-time  students  in  degree-granting  programs  of  its 
basic  undergraduate  colleges  and  graduate  schools.  Part-time  and  spe- 
cial students  are  not  included  in  this  authorization. 

Because  of  problems  of  adjustment  experienced  by  many  students 
from  foreign  countries,  the  University  makes  a  special  effort  to  carefully 
evaluate  the  educational  and  financial  qualifications  of  prospective  stu- 
dents. The  University  has  an  international  student  adviser  and  staff  to 
administer  to  the  special  needs  of  these  students. 

International  students  who  have  never  attended  an  institution  of  higher 
learning  or  who  have  already  attended  college  or  a  university  and  want 
to  transfer  to  Northeastern  should  write  to  the  Department  of  Undergrad- 
uate Admissions  for  information  and  applications.  Applicants  who  have 
already  received  a  degree  or  diploma  from  a  university  or  college  and 
seek  information  concerning  graduate  schools  at  Northeastern  should 
write  to  the  specific  graduate  school  in  which  they  are  interested  in 
matriculating. 

University  admissions  policies  for  international  students  are  found  on 
page  243. 

The  University  does  not  award  financial  aid  to  international  students 
at  the  undergraduate  level.

English  Language  Center 

Paul  C.  Krueger,  C.A.G.S,,  Director 

The  English  Language  Center  provides  an  important  resource  for  inter- 
national students  at  Northeastern.  Its  goal  is  to  ensure  that  students  who 
speak  English  as  a  second  language  are  proficient  enough  to  carry  on 
full-time  studies  in  a  degree  program  without  language-related  prob- 
lems. The  Center  administers  the  Intensive  English  Program,  which  of- 
fers three  levels  of  intensive,  noncredit  courses  in  English  as  a  second 
language — beginning,  intermediate,  and  advanced.  Intensive  English 
classes  are  open  to  undergraduate  and  graduate  students,  as  well  as  to 
students  who  come  to  Northeastern  to  study  English  only.  Those  stu- 
dents also  admitted  to  a  degree  program  in  the  University  may  take,  with 
the  approval  of  the  Director  of  the  English  Language  Center,  courses  for 
credit  while  studying  Intensive  English  at  the  advanced  level. 

The  Intensive  English  Program  offers  twenty  hours  of  classroom  in- 
struction per  week,  as  well  as  a  number  of  special  services.  The  weekly 
program  includes  classes  in  English  structure,  reading,  writing,  listening, 
and  speaking  skills,  as  well  as  small  group  tutorials,  practice  in  a  lan- 
guage laboratory  and  in  a  writing  laboratory,  and  help  from  a  pronunci- 
ation specialist  as  needed.  English  Language  Center  staff  work  closely 
with  staff  from  the  International  Student  Office,  other  offices  in  Student 
Affairs,  the  academic  departments,  and  other  University  services. 

In  addition  to  serving  students,  the  English  Language  Center  provides 
advice  and  consultation  to  the  Northeastern  community  at  large.  Center 
staff  are  available  to  answer  questions  from  teachers,  administrators, 
and  students  and  are  able  to  design  special  programs  for  special  needs 
at  short  notice.

service  even  for  minor  emotional  upsets. 

All  full-time  graduate  and  undergraduate  students  are  covered  by  a 
special  Blue  Cross  and  Blue  Shield  policy,  which  remains  in  effect  con- 
tinuously from  the  day  of  initial  registration  until  the  first  of  the  month 
following  withdrawal,  dismissal,  or  graduation.  Married  students  are 
urged  to  go  to  the  Finance  Office  (249  Richards  Hall)  to  purchase  sup- 
plementary coverage  for  dependents. 

An  infirmary  is  also  maintained  in  the  Forsyth  Building  for  the  care  of 
students  living  in  University  dormitories  and  apartment  houses.  The  re- 
quired infirmary  fee  entitles  students  to  twenty  days'  care  in  the  infirmary 
at  no  additional  charge. 

Students  are  urged  to  come  to  the  clinic  during  regular  clinic  hours  in 
order  to  take  advantage  of  all  of  our  facilities. 


Office  of  Services  for  the  Handicapped 

Ruth  K.  Bork,  M.Ed.,  Director 

Very  often,  the  degree  of  physical  accessibility  and  types  of  available 
support  services  play  an  important  part  in  a  disabled  student's  selection 
of  a  college.  An  examination  of  Northeastern  University's  campus  map 
shows  the  buildings  to  be  located  within  relatively  close  proximity  to  one 
another.  Nearly  all  buildings  have  elevators  that  are  open  to  use  by  all. 
A  special  advantage  at  Northeastern  is  the  existence  of  a  tunnel  system, 
constructed  prior  to  1965,  that  links  most  buildings;  in  the  harsh  New 
England  winters  and  during  inclement  weather,  this  proves  to  be  a  wel- 
come feature  to  all. 

Any  student  who  has  a  disability-related  special  need — no  matter  how 
small  or  individual — can  receive  ready  support  services  from  the  Office 
of  Services  for  the  Handicapped  (OSH).  Frequently,  students  are  uncer- 
tain about  how  they  may  be  aided  by  this  office,  and  in  these  situations 
a  discussion  of  possible  alternatives  can  be  quite  helpful.  OSH  provides 
a  wide  range  of  support  services  to  eliminate  the  competitive  disadvan- 
tages that  a  disability  may  create.  Services  are  individually  tailored  to 
meet  the  needs  of  each  student. 


306  /  Student  Support  Services  and  Resources 

If  you  have  a  disability,  you  are  strongly  urged  to  meet  with  the  staff  in 
OSH  early  on  in  your  consideration  of  Northeastern.  Together,  you  can 
discuss  the  types  of  service  that  would  best  meet  your  needs,  and  you 
will  have  an  opportunity  to  see  the  campus  firsthand.  If  a  visit  is  not 
possible,  contact  the  OSH  Director  by  phone  or  by  mail  to  avoid  the 
unnecessary  delays  and  confusion  that  may  arise  with  last-minute  ad- 
justments; telephone;  617-437-2675  (voice)  or  617-437-2730  (TTY). 

The  following  types  of  assistance  are  available  from  the  Office  of 
Services  for  the  Handicapped;

hearing-aid  evaluation,  fitting,  and  orientation;  instruction  in  sign  lan- 
guage and  speech  reading;  speech  therapy.  Sign  language  interpreting 
and  oral  interpreting  services  will  be  provided  to  deaf  and  hearing- 
impaired  students  only  after  they  have  been  denied  such  services  by 
their  Division  of  Vocational  Rehabilitation,  provided  the  Office  of  Services 
for  the  Handicapped  has  received  information  documenting  the  reason 
for  such  denial. 

For  the  Learning  Disabled  Student— OSH  assists  in  securing  taped  text- 
books and  materials;  readers;  untimed  testing;  asistance  in  securing

for  the  Disabled  Student  Organization  of  Northeastern  University,  which 
works  cooperatively  with  OSH  to  plan  programs  and  improve  accessi- 
bility of  services  for  handicapped  persons  at  Northeastern.

Student  Activities  at  Northeastern 

The  University  regards  student  activities  as  an  integral  part  of  education 
and  provides  for  a  range  of  activities  to  spark  your  interest  and  satisfy 
your  inclinations:  you  are  given  the  opportunity  to  play  intramural  sports 
on  a  wide  variety  of  teams;  write  for  the  Northeastern  News;  broadcast 
over  WRBB,  the  student-operated  radio  station;  act,  dance,  sing,  play 
music,  or  become  involved  with  student  government. 

The  University  encourages  relaxation  and  socializing:  you  can  meet 
new  friends  by  joining  any  of  the  more  than  150  campus  clubs  and 
organizations,  attend  a  lecture,  a  film,  or  a  play,  or  go  skiing  or  camping 
in  the  mountains.  Once  you  begin  to  take  advantage  of  what  is  available 
on  campus,  there's  no  telling  what  you  will  learn  or  whom  you  might 
meet. 

If  you  are  a  commuter  student,  it  is  likely  that  a  good  portion  of  your 
between-class  time  will  be  spent  in  the  Carl  S.  Ell  Student  Center.  The 
dominant  feature  of  the  main  level  of  this  "student  building"  is  the  mag- 
nificent main  lounge.  Five  stories  in  height,  the  lounge  will  comfortably 
seat  800  students — a  good  place  for  quiet  conversation  or  contempla- 
tion. Below  the  lounge  are  a  cafeteria  and  the  Rathskeller,  where  the 
sounds  are  much  more  audible.  In  addition,  the  Center  has  a  ballroom, 
a  piano  practice  room,  a  large  gameroom  with  billiards  and  table  tennis 
equipment,  study  rooms,  a  typing  room,  a  computer  room,  and  many 
meeting  and  function  rooms.  The  Information  Booth  staff  can  help  with 
any  questions  and  also  offers  printing  and  photocopying  services.  The 
Student  Center  is  that  part  of  Northeastern  University  where  you  can 
relax  and  really  feel  comfortable  and  at  home. 

Each  Monday  and  Thursday,  the  hours  between  11:30  a.m.  and  1:30 
p.m.  are  reserved  for  student  activities.  No  classes  are  held  during  these 
times,  to  allow  students  an  uninterrupted  period  of  time  for  themselves. 
Student  clubs,  intramural  sports,  cultural  events,  and  many  other  activi- 
ties are  scheduled  to  provide  opportunities  to  make  spontaneous  or 
planned  use  of  your  time.  You  have  the  chance  to  become  involved  in 
campus  activities,  whether  you  reside  in  the  residence  halls  or  are  a 
commuter,  without  interfering  with  your  academic  commitments.

New  Horizons 


This  program,  sponsored  by  the  Student  Activities  Department,  is  de- 
signed to  provide  enjoyment  as  well  as  the  opportunity  to  engage  in  a 
unique  learning  experience. 

The  New  Horizons  series  of  noncredit  mini-courses  is  conducted  by 
qualified  persons  in  special  areas  of  interest.  There  are  no  grades,  no 
transcripts,  and  no  examinations.  In  a  few  courses,  textbooks  are  re- 
quired; in  areas  such  as  the  performing  arts,  field  trips,  crafts,  or  media, 
a  material  fee  may  be  required. 

Enrollment  in  courses  is  determined  on  a  priority  basis  with  first  op- 
portunities for  registration  to  full-time  undergraduate  and  graduate  stu- 
dents, and  on  a  space-available  basis  to  other  members  of  the 
Northeastern  community.

Sports 

The  University  provides  opportunities  for  participation  in  athletic  pro- 
grams that  correspond  to  the  abilities  and  inclinations  of  most  students. 
We  especially  wish  to  provide  each  of  you  with  the  chance  to  develop 
skills  and  competence  for  lifelong  athletic  pursuits.  Along  with  many 
casual,  drop-in  opportunities,  you  can  participate  as  a  member  of  intra- 
mural teams.  Examples  of  intramural  sports  include  touch  football,  bas- 
ketball, volleyball,  soccer,  ice  hockey,  wrestling,  softball,  and  track. 


Professional  Societies 

Students  will  benefit  in  many  ways  by  joining  the  student  chapter  of  a 
professional  society  in  an  area  of  study  of  particular  interest  to  them. 
They  have  the  opportunity  to  keep  up  with  the  latest  developments  by 
listening  to  authorities  in  that  field,  to  exchange  ideas  with  students  from 
other  colleges  and  universities  as  well  as  from  Northeastern,  and  to  learn 
more  about  professional  standards. 

If  students  take  an  active  part  by  attending  regular  meetings  and 
social  affairs,  they  may  become  officers  or  members  of  a  delegation  to 
meetings  outside  the  University.  Such  participation  may  prove  invaluable 
in  shaping  a  career. 

The  following  professional  societies,  the  majority  of  which  are  national 
organizations,  are  open  to  upperclassmen  in  their  respective  profes- 
sional fields: 

American  Chemical  Society 

American  Institute  of  Chemical  Engineers 

American  Institute  of  Industrial  Engineers 

American  Society  of  Civil  Engineers 

American  Society  of  Mechanical  Engineers 

Engineers  Council 

Institute  of  Electronic  &  Electrical  Engineers 

Public  Relations  Student  Society

Society  of  Women  Engineers 

Student  American  Pharmaceutical  Association 


i\/len's  Athletics 

Whether  it  be  on  the  SuperTurf  at  Parsons  Field  in  the  fall,  the  ice  or 
hardwood  of  the  Matthews  Arena  in  the  winter,  or  the  waters  of  the 
picturesque  Charles  River  in  the  spring,  a  Northeastern  athletic  team  is 
a  familiar  sight,  either  training  or  competing,  nearly  twelve  months  of  the 
year  in  the  Greater  Boston  area. 

Husky  varsity  entries  have  touched  down  on  some  prestigious  athletic 
real  estate,  such  as  Henley-on-the-Thames,  England;  Madison  Square 
Garden,  New  York;  and  Fenway  Park,  which  is  part  of  Northeastern's 
Back  Bay  neighborhood.  In  fact,  one  could  include  the  Montreal  Olympic 
Village  in  the  summer  of  1976,  and  the  most  recent  sumer  Olympiad  in 
Los  Angeles,  when  an  alumnus  oarsman  stroked  his  way  to  a  silver 
medal  for  the  United  States. 

All  students  are  urged  to  participate  in  the  University's  athletic  pro- 
gram, which  recently  added  soccer  to  its  list  of  varsity  sports.  The  Uni- 


Student  Activities/ 31 5 

versity  fields  teams  in  baseball,  crew,  swimming,  cross-country,  track 
and  field,  football,  hockey,  basketball,  and  golf.  On  the  intramural  and 
club  levels,  students  may  also  participate  in  such  sports  as  sailing,  water 
polo,  volleyball,  lacrosse,  gymnastics,  softball,  handball,  and  fencing. 

Facilities  include  the  spacious  Cabot  Physical  Education  Center,  Ed- 
ward S.  Parsons  Field,  the  Matthews  Arena  and  the  recently  completed 
outdoor  track  and  field  facility  in  Dedham.  The  Cabot  Gymnasium  con- 
tains four  basketball  courts,  a  gymnastics  lyceum,  a  wrestling  and  aero- 
bics room,  a  cage  for  indoor  track  and  soccer,  and  six  modern 
racquetball  courts. 

Parsons  Field,  home  of  the  Huskies'  football  team,  with  its  new 
SuperTurf  surface,  also  features  the  Northeastern  baseball  diamond. 
The  Dedham  track  has  an  eight  lane,  Action  Trak  200  running  surface, 
and  an  expansive  area  for  concurrent  jumping  and  field  events.  The  new 
outdoor  facility  is  ready  to  host  dual  and  championship  meet  competi- 
tion, and  is  a  permanent  site  for  Northeastern  track  athletes. 

The  hockey  and  basketball  teams  play  their  home  games  in  the  his- 
toric "Boston  Arena"— now  the  Matthews  Arena,  named  for  University 
benefactors  George  and  Hope  M.  Matthews.  The  Arena  is  located  near 
the  main  quadrangle  of  the  campus.  It  provides  a  portable  floor  for  the 
Husky  basketball  team  and  daily  free  public  skating. 

Matthews  Arena  is  the  oldest  ice  hockey  rink  in  the  world,  and  features 
a  seating  capacity  of  6,000  and  some  of  the  finest  sight  lines  of  any  rink 
in  the  country.  Within  the  past  three  years,  both  the  men's  basketball 
and  hockey  teams  surged  to  NCAA  Championship  play  under  the  roof 
of  the  Matthews  Arena. 

Northeastern  annually  fields  one  of  the  most  competitive  Division  l-AA 
football  teams  in  New  England,  and  as  an  Independent  has  always 
played  a  demanding  schedule.  A  partial  list  of  the  Huskies'  most  recent 
opponents  includes  New  Hampshire,  Massachusetts,  Lehigh,  Rich- 
mond, and  Youngstown  State. 

The  University's  hockey  team  skates  in  the  brand  new  Hockey  East 
Association,  the  eastern  college  hockey  alignment  which  includes  three 
Boston  based  teams  and  a  total  of  seven  teams  from  New  England. 
Along  with  city  rivals  Boston  College,  Boston  University,  and  Harvard, 
the  Huskies  spend  the  first  two  Monday  nights  in  February  playing  in  the 
prestigious  Beanpot  Hockey  Tournament  before  a  packed  Boston  Gar- 
den house.  In  1985  the  Huskies  became  the  first  team  to  win  back-to- 
back  Beanpots  since  1979. 

Northeastern's  basketball  Huskies  wage  their  roundball  wars  in  the 
tough  ECAC  North  Atlantic  Conference  of  the  NCAA.  They  play  the  local 
powers  such  as  Boston  College  and  Boston  University,  and  recent  tour- 
nament soirees  have  included  games  with  national  powers  such  as  West 
Texas  State,  Ohio  State,  and  Montana.  Even  against  the  cream  of  the 
East,  Northeastern  has  had  eighteen  winning  seasons  in  the  last  22 
years. 

To  discuss  track  and  cross  country  in  New  England  is  to  talk  about 
Northeastern  track  and  cross  country.  The  Huskies,  who  defended  their 
Greater  Boston  Championship  last  January,  have  been  the  flagship  pro- 
gram on  the  New  England  track  and  field  scene  for  the  last  decade  and 
a  half;  in  that  stretch,  the  Huskies  have  captured  seven  New  England 
indoor  titles  and  six  outdoor  championships.  Each  year.  Northeastern  is 
represented  by  alumni  running  for  national  and  international  honors  as 
members  of  top  track  and  field  clubs. 

Northeastern  also  fields  a  strong  golf  team  which  competes  in  all  the 
major  Eastern  tournaments. 


31 6 /Student  Activities 

The  most  amazing  Husky  sports  story,  however,  is  that  of  varsity  crew. 
In  1965,  its  first  season,  the  NU  crew  won  four  of  five  regattas  and  the 
small  college  rowing  championships,  and  became  the  first  NU  team  to 
compete  internationally  when  it  rowed  in  the  Henley  Royal  Regatta.  The 
next  year,  the  Huskies  moved  into  the  major  college  rowing  league.  They 
culminated  their  swift  rise  by  winning  the  Eastern  Spnnts  in  1972  and 
1973  and  rowed  in  the  finals  of  the  Grand  Challenge  Cup  of  the  Henley 
Royal  Regatta,  in  1973,  they  were  considered  the  finest  eight  in  the 
country.  In  1978,  the  freshman  crew  won  the  Eastern  Sprints  and  was 
invited  to  row  the  Thames  Challenge  Cup  race  at  Henley. 

Northeastern  has  buttressed  its  physical  fitness  facilities  campus-wide 
and  accommodates  the  daily  influx  of  undergraduates,  graduates,  staff, 
and  faculty  at  Cabot  Gymnasium  and  the  Matthews  Arena.  One  of  the 
most  popular  accoutrements  is  the  six-year-old  Nautilus  weight-training 
room,  equipped  with  Nautilus  apparatus  and  traditional  free  weights. 


Women's  Athletics 

From  a  very  small  program  with  very  few  resources,  the  Northeastern 
University  women's  intercollegiate  athletic  program  has  grown  rapidly, 
reflecting  the  tremendous  growth  in  women's  athletics  at  all  levels.  The 
program  now  encompasses  twelve  activities:  basketball,  crew,  cross- 
country, field  hockey,  gymnastics,  ice  hockey,  lacrosse,  swimming  and 
diving,  tennis,  track  and  field  (indoor  and  outdoor),  and  volleyball. 

As  members  of  the  NCAA,  Northeastern  University  subscribes  to  all 
policies  and  regulations  of  the  Association.  Athletic  scholarships  are 
available  to  women  student  athletes  in  all  programs. 

Northeastern's  goal  is  to  provide  an  excellent  program  of  intercolle- 
giate athletics  for  all  women  students  who  qualify.  The  programs  are  in 
the  mainstream  of  the  exciting  growth  in  women's  athletics  throughout 
the  country. 

The  field  hockey  and  lacrosse  teams,  using  the  astroturf  at  Edward  S. 
Parson's  Field  in  Brookline  as  their  home  field,  have  long  been  regarded 
as  among  the  strongest  in  New  England.  The  basketball  and  volleyball 
programs,  working  out  of  Dockser  Hall  and  Cabot  Gymnasium  on  the 
Boston  campus,  have  appeared  in  state  and  regional  championships, 
and  are  moving  rapidly  toward  NCAA  qualification.  The  tennis  team,  with 
recent  steady  improvement,  is  well  respected  in  the  region.  The  gym- 
nastics team,  with  a  vastly  upgraded  schedule,  is  striving  to  reach  a 
high  level  of  regionally  competitive  scoring. 

Two  of  our  younger  programs — crew,  and  swimming  and  diving — 
have  shown  rapid  improvement.  Members  of  crew  have  been  selected 
for  participation  in  Olympic  Development  Camps,  have  been  gold  medal 
winners  at  the  National  Sports  Festival  and  at  the  NWRA  National  Cham- 
pionship. 

The  three  newest  teams— cross-country,  ice  hockey,  and  track  and 
field — have  moved  out  of  "rookie"  status.  The  ice  hockey  team,  which 
makes  its  home  in  the  beautifully  renovated  Matthews  Arena,  has  be- 
come one  of  the  strongest  in  the  country,  in  addition  to  winning  the  local 
Beanpot  Tournament  in  1979,  1980,  and  1984.  Track  continues  its  de- 
velopment. 

Moving  toward  excellence  in  all  programs.  Women's  Athletics  looks 
forward  to  an  exciting  year.  Specific  policies  and  guidelines  relating  to

academic  eligibility  for  athletics  will  be  distributed  in  writing  to  all  student 
athletes. 


Religious  Life 

Northeastern  has  genuine  concern  for  the  religious  and  moral  develop- 
ment of  students  of  all  faiths.  A  Religious  Advisory  Board,  consisting  of 
administrators  and  faculty,  as  well  as  full-time  guest  chaplains,  seeks  to 
articulate  the  needs  in  this  area  and  facilitate  the  work  of  various  reli- 
gious groups  on  campus.  A  Chaplains'  Association,  consisting  of  the 
full-time  guest  chaplains,  works  cooperatively  to  emphasize  the  interfaith 
dimensions  of  campus  life. 

The  chaplains  also  deal  with  students  on  a  denominational  basis  at 
various  centers  near  the  campus:  Episcopal  College  Work  Center  in 
Brookline;  Hillel  House  on  Parker  Street;  Lutheran  Center,  84  The  Fen- 
way; and  St.  Ann's  Roman  Catholic  Parish  on  St.  Stephen  Street.  In 
addition,  there  are  numerous  religious  student  organizations  on  campus, 
recognized  by  the  Student  Affairs  Committee  and  listed  under  "Student 
Organizations." 

Interfaith  chapel  services  are  held  in  the  Bacon  Memorial  Chapel, 
located  in  the  Ell  Student  Center.  These  voluntary  religious  services  are 
planned  to  commemorate  special  days  and  events  and  will  be  an- 
nounced sufficiently  ahead  of  time.  The  Chapel  is  also  used  for  denom- 
inational worship  services  and  special  lectures  on  religion.  It  is  open 
daily  for  prayer  and  meditation  and  is  a  frequent  setting  for  weddings  of 
students  and  alumni.

General  Information

History 


Founded  in  1898,  Northeastern  University  is  incorporated  as  a  privately 
endowed  nonsectarian  institution  of  higher  learning  under  the  General 
Laws  of  Massachusetts.  By  special  enactment,  the  state  legislature  has 
given  the  University  general  degree-granting  powers.  The  University  is 
governed  by  a  Board  of  Trustees  who  are  elected  by  and  from  the 
Northeastern  University  Corporation,  which  is  composed  of  almost  200 
distinguished  business  and  professional  men  and  women.  The  Board  of 
Overseers,  chosen  from  the  membership  of  the  Corporation,  based  on 
their  exceptional  interest  in  and  support  of  the  University,  is  also  a  partic- 
ipant in  the  affairs  of  the  institution. 

From  its  beginning.  Northeastern  University's  dominant  purpose  has 
been  the  discovery  of  community  educational  needs  and  distinctive  and 
serviceable  ways  of  meeting  them.  The  University  has  not  duplicated 
the  programs  of  other  institutions,  but  has  sought  to  pioneer  new  areas 
of  educational  service. 

A  distinctive  feature  of  Northeastern  University  is  its  Cooperative  Plan 
of  Education,  initiated  by  the  College  of  Engineering  in  1909  and  sub- 
sequently adopted  by  the  Colleges  of  Business  Administration  (1922), 
Arts  and  Sciences  (1935),  Education  (1953),  Pharmacy  (1962),  Nursing 
(1964),  Boston-Bouve  College  (1964),  the  College  of  Criminal  Justice 
(1967),  the  School  of  Engineering  Technology's  (formerly  Lincoln  Col- 
lege) daytime  Bachelor  of  Engineering  Technology  Program  (1971),  the 
College  of  Computer  Science  (1982),  and  by  University  College  in  a 
special  pilot  program  (1980).  This  educational  method  offers  students 
the  opportunity  to  gain  valuable  practical  experience  as  an  integral  part 
of  their  college  programs  and  also  provides  the  means  by  which  they 
may  contribute  substantially  to  the  financing  of  their  education.  The  plan 
has  been  extended  to  the  graduate  level  in  criminal  justice,  engineering, 
rehabilitation  administration,  professional  accounting,  business  admin- 
istration, and  law. 

In  the  field  of  adult  education,  the  University  offers  graduate  and  un- 
dergraduate degree  programs  and  noncredit  programs  that  are  specif- 
ically designed  to  meet  the  needs  and  interests  of  adults  who  wish  to 
further  their  education  on  a  part-time  basis. 

All  formal  courses  of  study  leading  to  degrees  in  the  Graduate  Divi- 
sion, the  School  of  Engineering  Technology  (formerly  Lincoln  College), 
and  University  College  are  approved  by  the  undergraduate  faculties 
concerned  and  are  governed  by  the  same  qualitative  and  quantitative 
standards  as  the  regular  day  curricula.  Courses  are  scheduled  in  the 
day  and  evening  at  the  Boston  Campus,  Suburban  Campus  in  Burling- 
ton, the  Dedham  Campus,  and  at  other  off-campus  locations  near  Bos- 
ton. 


Academic  Policy 

Policy  on  Changes  of  Program 


The  University  reserves  the  right  to  withdraw,  modify,  augment,  or 
change  the  order  or  content  of  courses  in  any  curriculum. 

It  further  reserves  the  right  to  change  tuition,  and  fees  charged,  and 
other  regulations. 

Any  changes  which  may  be  made  from  time  to  time  pursuant  to  the 
above  policy  shall  be  applicable  to  all  students  in  the  school,  college,  or 
department  concerned,  including  former  students  who  may  re-enroll. 


Academic  Policy  /  321 

Textbooks  and  Supplies 

The  Northeastern  University  Bookstore,  located  on  the  ground  floor  of 
the  Ell  Student  Center,  is  a  department  of  the  University  and  is  operated 
for  the  convenience  of  the  student  body.  All  books  and  supplies  that  are 
required  by  the  students  for  their  work  in  the  University  may  be  pur- 
chased at  the  Bookstore. 

The  Academic  Year 

Northeastern  University  operates  on  a  quarter-system  calendar. 

Quarter-Hour  Credits 

All  courses  are  evaluated  in  terms  of  quarter-hour  credit.  A  quarter-hour 
credit  is  equal  to  three-fourths  of  a  semester-hour  credit. 

Grades  and  Examinations 

Examinations  covering  the  work  of  the  quarter  usually  are  held  at  the 
close  of  each  quarter.  Exceptions  may  be  made  in  certain  courses 
where,  in  the  opinion  of  the  instructor  and  with  the  approval  of  the  dean 
of  the  college  concerned,  final  examinations  are  not  necessary. 

Pass-Fail  System 

Students  may  register  for  a  limited  number  of  courses  on  a  pass-fail 
basis.  Each  college  has  its  own  rules  governing  this  system.  Common 
to  all  colleges,  however,  is  the  grading  system.  Pass-fail  grades  are  not 
included  in  the  calculation  of  the  quality  point  average.  Only  pass 
grades  earn  credits  toward  degree  requirements.  (Pass-fail  guidelines 
are  also  stated  in  the  Student  Handbook.) 

Grades 

A  student's  grade  is  officially  recorded  by  letter.  Introduced  in  Septem- 
ber 1980,  the  following  grades,  listed  below  with  their  numerical  equiv- 
alents, are  in  effect: 

A  4.000 

A-  3.667 

B-l-  3.333 

B  3.000 

B-  2.667 

C+  2.333 

C  2.000 

0-  1.667 

D+  1.333 

D  1 .000 

D-  .667 

F  0 

A  general  average  of  C-  is  not  acceptable  and  will  not  allow  a  student 
to  continue  at  Northeastern  University. 

Freshman  students  who  are  taking  a  full  academic  program  and  who 
have  a  weighted  average  for  the  year  below  1 .4  will  not  be  permitted  to 
register  for  advanced  work.  Upperclass  students  should  consult  the 
Student  Handbook  to  ascertain  the  level  of  continuing  achievement  re- 
quired of  them  by  the  faculty  of  their  college. 

An  I,  or  X  (Incomplete),  grade  is  used  to  show  that  the  student  has  not 
completed  the  course  requirements. 

An  official  University  grade  report  is  mailed  to  each  student  at  the  end 
of  each  quarter. 


322  /  General  Information 

Transcripts 

Applications  for  transcripts  of  record  are  made  at  the  Registrar's  Office 
(120  HA).  A  charge  of  $2.00  is  made  for  each  transcript  request. 


Writing  Requirement 

All  Basic  Day  College  freshmen  must  successfully  complete  an  all-Uni- 
versity writing  requirement  in  order  to  fulfill  their  graduation  require- 
ments. The  requirement  also  applies  to  all  transfer  students  matriculating 
at  the  University  beginning  in  the  Fall  Quarter  of  1985. 

As  a  requirement  for  graduation  with  a  bachelor's  degree,  each  stu- 
dent must  successfully  complete  two  quarters  of  basic  composition  and 
literature  (or  equivalent)  and  satisfy  the  upper  division  writing  require- 
ment. 

The  upper  division  writing  requirement  may  not  begin  until  the  student 
has  successfully  completed  at  least  eighty  quarter-hours  of  academic 
work  (including  transfer  credit). 

The  upper  division  writing  requirement  may  be  fulfilled  by  passing  one 
upper  division  writing  course  (four  quarter-hour  course  with  a  C  or  bet- 
ter) or  by  passing  a  course,  Writing  Lab  (one  credit  course).  Upperclass 
students  should  consult  their  advisor  or  the  English  Department  for  fur- 
ther details  on  fulfillment  of  the  writing  requirement. 

The  Basic  Day  Colleges  Course  Description  and  Curriculum  Guide 
and  The  Student  Handbook  specify  the  details  of  the  writing  requirement 
for  both  1985  entering  freshmen  and  transfer  students. 

Dean's  List 

An  Honors  or  Dean's  List  is  issued  at  the  end  of  each  quarter  containing 
the  names  of  students  who  have  a  3.0  quality-point  average  or  higher, 
with  no  "I"  grade  or  grade  below  C-.  A  student  who  is  on  any  form  of 
probation,  enrolled  in  a  course  on  a  pass-fail  basis  (except  where  there 
is  no  alternative  or  where  required  by  the  program),  or  not  carrying  a  full 
load  as  determined  by  his  or  her  Basic  College  will  not  be  eligible.  With 
few  exceptions,  as  approved  by  the  respective  Colleges,  a  full  load  is 
normally  considered  to  be  four  courses  or  sixteen  quarter-hours. 

Dean's  List  Cum  Laude  3.000-3.490 

Dean's  List  Magna  Cum  Laude  3.500-3.740 

Dean's  List  Summa  Cum  Laude  3.750-4.000 

Beginning  with  the  Class  of  1990  and  all  future  classes,  the  minimum 
quality-point  average  to  achieve  Dean's  List  status  will  be  3.25. 

Dean's  List  Cum  Laude  3.250-3.490 

Dean's  List  Magna  Cum  Laude  3.500-3.740 

Dean's  List  Summa  Cum  Laude  3.750-4.000 

Reports  on  Scholastic  Standing 

Reports  for  all  students  are  issued  at  the  end  of  each  grading  period. 
Questions  about  grades  are  to  be  discussed  with  the  student's  faculty 
adviser. 

At  the  end  of  the  academic  year,  juniors  will  receive,  in  addition  to 
their  term  reports,  a  complete  cumulative  copy  of  their  permanent  rec- 
ords. Students  should  contact  the  dean  of  their  college,  if  discrepancies 
are  found. 

Students  are  constantly  encouraged  to  maintain  an  acceptable  quality 
of  college  work.  Parents  and  students  are  always  welcomed  by  the 
college  officers  and  faculty  advisers  for  a  conference  upon  such  mat- 
ters. 


Academic  Policy  /  323 

Family  Educational  Rights  and 
Privacy  Act 

In  accordance  with  the  Family  Educational  Rights  and  Privacy  Act  of 
1974,  Northeastern  University  permits  its  students  to  inspect  their  rec- 
ords wherever  appropriate  and  to  challenge  specific  parts  of  them  when 
they  feel  it  necessary  to  do  so.  Specific  details  of  the  law  as  it  applies  to 
Northeastern  are  printed  in  the  Student  Handbook,  which  is  distributed 
annually  at  registrations. 

It  is  the  policy  of  Northeastern  University  to  deal  with  the  student  in  all 
academic  and  adminstrative  matters.  If  parents  require  any  information 
regarding  the  progress  of  their  son  or  daughter,  they  may  contact  the 
Dean  of  Students'  Office. 

General  Conduct 

It  is  assumed  that  students  come  to  the  University  for  a  serious  purpose. 
The  University  community  expects  each  student  to  respect  the  rights 
and  privileges  of  others  and  to  adhere  to  acceptable  standards  of  per- 
sonal conduct.  Students  should  exercise  their  freedom  with  maturity  and 
responsibility.  They  are  expected  to  obey  University  regulations  and 
follow  the  instructions  of  and  pay  due  respect  to  University  officials. 
Conduct  inconsistent  with  the  general  order  of  the  University  may  result 
in  disciplinary  action.  Damage  to  any  building  or  to  any  of  the  furniture, 
apparatus,  or  other  property  of  the  University  will  be  charged  to  students 
involved. 

Any  form  of  academic  dishonesty  is  regarded  as  a  most  serious  of- 
fense and  renders  the  offender  liable  to  disciplinary  action.  Aiding  and 
abetting  a  student  in  any  dishonesty  is  also  held  to  be  a  grave  breach 
of  discipline. 

The  University  administers  discipline  with  a  high  standard  of  integrity 
and  a  scrupulous  regard  for  truth. 

Attendance 

Students  are  expected  to  attend  all  meetings  of  their  classes.  Absence 
from  regularly  scheduled  classes  may  seriously  affect  the  standing  of 
the  student  and  result  in  the  University's  dropping  the  subject  or  sub- 
jects from  his  or  her  schedule.  Laboratory  work  can  be  made  up  only 
during  hours  of  regularly  scheduled  instruction. 

Emergency  Closing  of  the 
University 

Northeastern  University  has  made  arrangements  to  notify  students,  fac- 
ulty, and  staff  by  radio  when  it  becomes  necessary  to  cancel  classes 
because  of  extremely  inclement  weather.  AM  radio  stations  WBZ  (1030), 
WEEI  (590),  WHDH  (850),  WRKO  (680),  and  FM  stations  WBCN  (104.1), 
WZOU  (94.5),  WROR  (98.5)  are  the  stations  authorized  to  announce  the 
University's  decision  to  close.  Since  instructional  television  courses  orig- 
inate from  live  or  broadcast  facilities  at  the  University,  neither  the  classes 
nor  the  courier  service  operate  when  the  University  is  closed.

Policy  on  International  Programs  and 
Services  I 

Northeastern  University,  a  world  leader  in  cooperative  education,  ac- 
knowledges the  increasing  interdependence  among  nations,  and,  there- 
fore, identifies  its  mission  as  preparing  its  graduates  to  live  and  work  in 
an  interdependent  world.  The  University  deems  it  essential  that  its  stu- 
dents, both  in  the  professions  as  well  as  in  the  humanities,  develop  a 
greater  awareness  and  understanding  of  those  social,  political  and  eco- 
nomic issues  that  transcend  national  boundaries.  So  interconnected  are 
these  issues  that  a  recognition  of  them  coupled  with  an  appreciation  of 
the  diverse  cultures  which  gave  rise  to  them  is  necessary  for  the  devel- 
opment of  productive  and  responsible  citizens  of  the  world  community. 

To  accomplish  this  goal.  Northeastern  University  actively  seeks  quali- 
fied students  from  abroad  to  enroll  in  its  undergraduate  and  graduate 
programs  in  such  numbers  and  with  such  geographic  origins  so  as  to 
create  and  foster  a  truly  global  exchange  of  ideas  and  values  among 
students,  faculty,  and  staff. 

The  University  also  encourages  all  colleges  to  continually  develop  and 
expand  course  offerings  to  include  international  issues  and  cross-cul- 
tural aspects  and  supports  faculty  to  teach  and  conduct  research  in  the 
interrelationships  among  nations  and  peoples.  The  University  promotes 
international  understanding  and  the  sharing  of  ideas  with  institutions 
throughout  the  world  by  virtue  of  its  faculty  and  staff  exchanges  and  its 
study  and  work  abroad  programs  for  students. 

Finally,  the  University  recognizes  that  it  has  a  special  responsibility  to 
share  its  expertise  and  to  cooperate  with  international  organizations,  the 
local  community,  its  alumni,  and  diverse  segments  of  the  public  in  an 
effort  to  promote  greater  awareness  of  global  issues  and  events. 


Alumni  Association 

More  than  100,000  alumni  are  united  within  the  Alumni  Association,  cre- 
ated to  establish  a  mutually  beneficial  relationship  between  Northeastern 
and  its  graduates.  The  Association  is  governed  by  an  Executive  Com- 
mittee elected  from  the  alumni  community.  Membership  in  the  Associa- 
tion is  automatic  upon  graduation. 

The  Association  is  headquartered  in  the  Office  of  Alumni  Relations  in 
125  Richards  Hall;  telephone  617-437-3186.  Addresses  of  alumni  are 
maintained  in  the  Office  of  Alumni  Records;  telephone  61 7-437-2792. 

Activities  of  the  Association  include  the  Homecoming  celebration, 
presentation  of  the  Outstanding  Alumni  Awards,  and  the  annual  pres- 
entation of  Professional  Promise  Awards  to  outstanding  seniors  in  each 
of  the  Colleges.  Alumni  officers,  in  conjunction  with  the  Office  of  Alumni 
Relations,  have  established  a  series  of  enrichment/education  programs 
to  meet  the  contemporary  vocational  and  avocational  needs  of  North- 
eastern's  graduates.  The  Alumni  Association  has  also  initiated  a  suc- 
cessful group  travel  program  to  provide  the  alumni  of  Northeastern  with 
interesting  and  economical  opportunities  for  foreign  travel,  and  sponsors 
group  term  life  insurance  for  members  of  the  alumni  community.  Notice 
of  all  activities  is  provided  in  the  Northeastern  Alumni  Magazine  and  in 
special  publications. 


General  Information  /  325 

Regional  alumni  clubs  have  been  established  from  coast  to  coast.  All 
alumni  are  eligible  to  become  members  of  these  organizations.  The 
clubs  meet  periodically  with  varied  programs,  often  in  conjunction  with 
professional  and  athletic  events,  faculty  visits,  and  service  projects.  Ad- 
ditionally, alumni  class  organizations  conduct  reunions  for  their  respec- 
tive classes  every  five  years,  and  Golden  Graduates'  Day,  for  senior 
alumni,  has  become  an  annual  event. 

The  Association  sponsors  and  assists  constituent  organizations  that 
focus  on  common  professional  and  avocational  interests  and  college 
affiliations.  These  groups  have  their  own  officers  and  conduct  various 
programs  throughout  the  year. 

Regional  alumni  clubs  provide  a  valuable  service  to  the  University  by 
sponsoring  admissions  conferences  for  high  school  students  and  the 
parents  of  students  who  are  interested  in  attending  college.  In  addition, 
alumni  volunteers  in  many  metropolitan  areas  across  the  nation  repre- 
sent the  Admissions  Office  on  a  continuing  basis  at  high  schools  and 
community  colleges. 


Gifts  and  Bequests  to  Northeastern 
University 

Northeastern  University  welcomes  gifts  and  bequests  to  further  its  edu- 
cational purposes.  It  is  recommended  that  those  contemplating  gifts  or 
bequests  confer  with  the  President  of  the  University  regarding  the  needs 
of  the  University. 

A  member  of  Northeastern  University's  staff  will  be  happy  to  consult 
with  those  considering  a  gift  or  bequest.  Planned  gifts  to  the  University 
can  often  be  combined  with  personal  financial  goals  to  produce  maxi- 
mum financial  security,  as  well  as  significant  tax  savings  for  an  individual 
or  family. 

The  legal  name  of  the  University  is  "Northeastern  University."  In  mak- 
ing a  gift  or  bequest,  it  is  recommended  the  following  wording  be  used: 
"Northeastern  University,  an  educational  institution  incorporated  under 
the  laws  of  Massachusetts  and  located  in  Boston,  Massachusetts."

program,  ROTC  is  available  on  a  voluntary  basis  to  all  full-time  students. 
The  program's  mission  is  to  develop  officers— leaders.  It  offers  courses 
of  instruction  designed  to  lead  to  a  commission  as  an  Army  second 
lieutenant. 

The  ROTC  staff  consists  of  active  Army  officers  and  NCOs,  assigned 
by  the  Department  of  the  Army. 


326  /  General  Information 

Courses  of  Study 

The  program  consists  of  the  Basic  Course  (freshman  and  sophomore 
years)  and  the  Advanced  Course  (middler,  junior,  and  senior  years)  and 
complements  the  co-op  program  by  tailoring  the  courses  to  the  student's 
schedule. 

Enrollment  in  the  Basic  Course  is  voluntary  and  is  open  to  all  full-time 
students  who  qualify.  Students  do  not  incur  a  military  obligation  by  par- 
ticipating in  the  Basic  Course. 

The  Advanced  Course  is  open  to  all  qualified  students  who  meet  these 
prerequisites:  (1)  completion  of  Basic  Course  or  approved  equivalent, 
or  prior  honorable  military  service;  (2)  physical  aptitude  and  medical 
requirements;  and  (3)  age  requirements.  Students  accepted  for  the  Ad- 
vanced Course  execute  a  written  contract  that  obligates  the  newly  com- 
missioned second  lieutenant  to  a  period  of  military  service.  Advanced 
Course  students  receive  a  $100/month  stipend  up  to  $1,000  per  year. 
They  are  also  paid  for  the  six-week  advanced  camp  normally  attended 
between  their  junior  and  senior  year. 

ROTC  Scholarships 

The  Army  ROTC  scholarship  provides  full  tuition,  fees,  textbooks,  and 
$100  per  month  to  the  recipient.  Selected  four-year  scholarship  winners 
may  also  qualify  for  full  room-and-board  during  their  freshman  year. 
Scholarships  are  available  in  varying  lengths  and  cover  the  cadet's  re- 
maining academic  years.  Noncadets  may  apply  for  scholarships  cover- 
ing their  last  four  or  three  academic  years.  These  scholarships  are  merit- 
based  scholarships,  and  a  student's  earnings  during  cooperative  work 
periods  do  not  reduce  scholarship  payments. 

Veterans  and  Transfer  Students 

Honorably  discharged  veterans  (enlisted)  are  a  vital  part  of  our  cadet 
corps  and  will  receive  special  consideration  for  ROTC  entry. 

Transfer  students,  whether  or  not  previously  enrolled  in  ROTC,  are 
also  welcome  to  join  our  program.  They  should  contact  the  Department 
of  Military  Science  concerning  their  options  for  program  entry. 

Uniforms  and  Equipment 

Uniforms  are  issued  without  cost  to  ROTC  cadets.  A  $35  deposit  is 
required  to  ensure  the  return  of  the  loaned  property  in  good  condition. 
Loss  or  damage  to  Army  equipment,  exceeding  the  deposit,  will  be 
charged  to  the  student. 

Academic  Credits 

Regulations  of  the  individual  Basic  Colleges  prevail  for  ROTC  graduation 
credit.  However,  students  may  individually  petition  their  academic  de- 
partment for  acceptance  of  certain  courses  for  graduation  credit. 


Air  Force 

Thomas  J.  Meyer,  Lt.  Col.,  USAF;  M.A. 

Professor  and  Chairman,  Department  of  Aerospace  Studies,  Boston  Uni- 
versity 

The  Air  Force  Reserve  Officer  Training  Corps  (AFROTC)  program  offers 
students  an  opportunity  to  earn  a  commission  in  the  United  States  Air 
Force.  The  student  is  commissioned  as  a  second  lieutenant  upon  com- 


General  Information  /  327 

pletion  of  both  the  Aerospace  Studies  (AS)  curriculum  and  the  require- 
ments for  an  undergraduate  or  graduate  degree.  Northeastern 
University  students  may  enter  the  AFROTC  program  as  members  of 
either  a  four-year  or  a  two-year  program.  Participation  in  AFROTC  by 
nonscholarship  students  during  the  first  two  years  of  the  four-year  pro- 
gram carries  no  commitment  to  serve  in  the  Air  Force. 

The  AFROTC  program  is  administered  by  AFROTC  Detachment  355, 
156  Bay  State  Road,  at  Boston  University  617-353-4705,  AFROTC 
classes  are  conducted  at  the  B.U.  campus. 

Four- Year  Program 

Undergraduates  may  join  the  four-year  AFROTC  program  by  registering 
for  the  appropriate  Aerospace  Studies  classes.  Students  from  all  aca- 
demic disciplines,  including  five-year  co-op,  may  register.  Preferred  en- 
try is  the  first  semester,  freshman  year,  although  students  may  enter  as 
late  as  the  first  semester,  sophomore  year. 

Freshman  classes  focus  on  the  functions,  organizations,  and  hard- 
ware of  the  Air  Force.  Sophomore  classes  concentrate  on  the  history  of 
aerospace  power.  Complementing  the  academic  classes  is  a  weekly 
leadership  laboratory,  during  which  students  are  introduced  to  Air  Force 
customs,  courtesies,  drill,  ceremonies,  and  lifestyles. 

The  Air  Force  uniform  and  AFROTC  books  are  provided  to  the  student 
free  of  charge  except  for  a  refundable  uniform  deposit. 

Continuation  beyond  the  sophomore  year  is  not  guaranteed.  Factors 
considered  include  leadership  potential,  academic  performance,  field 
training  evaluations,  and  results  of  a  physical  examination. 

The  non-flying  commissioned  graduate  incurs  a  four-year  active  duty 
service  commitment.  Navigators  incur  a  five-year,  post-training  commit- 
ment, and  pilots  incur  a  six-year,  post-training  commitment. 

Two- Year  Program 

Students  unable  to  participate  in  the  four-year  AFROTC  program  are 
eligible  for  the  two-year  program.  Prerequisites  for  entry  into  the  two- 
year  program  include:  (1)  at  least  six  remaining  academic  quarters  of 
undergraduate  or  graduate  study;  {?.)  meeting  Air  Force  physical  stan- 
dards; (3)  good  moral  character;  and  (4)  successful  completion  of  six 
weeks  of  field  training.  Applications  for  the  two-year  program  require 
several  months  for  processing.  Prospective  two-year  program  members 
should  contact  the  University  AFROTC  detachment  at  least  six  months 
prior  to  proposed  entry. 

Scholarships 

Academic  scholarships  are  available  for  those  who  qualify.  The  College 
Scholarship  Program  pays  for  tuition,  textbooks,  required  fees,  and  a 
$100-per-month,  tax-free  subsistence  allowance.  Most  scholarships  are 
awarded  for  four  years  starting  with  the  freshman  year.  Application  is 
made  while  the  student  is  a  senior  in  high  school.  Application  forms 
should  be  available  in  the  guidance  counselor's  office  or  by  writing  to 
the  Four-Year  Scholarship  Branch,  Air  Force  ROTO,  Maxwell  AFB,  AL 
36112.  Scholarships  are  also  available  for  students  already  in  college. 
Students  may  apply  for  a  three-and-a-half,  three,  two-and-a-half,  or  two- 
year  scholarship.  Call  617-353-4705  for  further  details.

The  Center  for  Cooperative  Education 

Paul  E.  Dube,  M.A.,  M.Ed.,  Director 

Educational  institutions  and  other  organizations  that  are  interested  in 
exploring  the  concept  of  cooperative  education,  implementing  new  pro- 
grams, or  expanding  and  improving  already  existing  ones  can  utilize  the 
services  offered  by  the  Center  for  Cooperative  Education.  In  addition  to 
providing  technical  assistance,  the  Center  will  conduct  evaluations  of 
cooperative  education  programs  for  both  educational  institutions  and 
employers. 

The  Center  staff  is  made  up  of  qualified  professionals  who  are  familiar 
with  all  aspects  of  cooperative  education.  Throughout  the  year,  short- 
term  training  programs  for  both  new  and  experienced  coordinators  of 
cooperative  programs  are  offered. 

The  Labor  Market  Analyst  at  the  Center  establishes  a  network  of  con- 
tracts and  generates  information  on  employment  changes  affecting  em- 
ployers in  business,  high  tech,  and  the  health  industries.  The  collected 
data  is  analyzed  and  interpreted  for  use  by  the  entire  co-op  department. 

The  Center,  to  help  Northeastern  better  serve  its  international  students 
and  the  countries  from  which  they  originate,  is  currently  working  on  a 
project  to  develop  home  country  placements  for  these  students.  Em- 
ployment is  being  sought  and  international  students  recruited  in  those 
regions  of  the  world  in  which  economies  are  strong  enough  to  provide 
at-home  placements  for  the  students  during  their  cooperative  education 
employment  periods.

Delivery  of  Services  The  University  assumes  no  lia- 
bility, and  hereby  expressly  negates  the  same,  for  fail- 
ure to  provide  or  delay  in  providing  educational  or 
related  services  or  facilities  or  for  any  other  failure  or 
delay  in  performance  arising  out  of  or  due  to  causes 
beyond  the  reasonable  control  of  the  University,  which 
causes  include,  without  limitation,  power  failure,  fire, 
strikes  by  University  employees  or  others,  damage  by 
the  elements,  and  acts  of  public  authorities.  The  Uni- 
versity will,  however,  exert  reasonable  efforts,  when  in 
its  judgment  it  is  appropriate  to  do  so,  to  provide  com- 
parable or  substantially  equivalent  services,  facilities, 
or  performance,  but  its  inability  or  failure  to  do  so  shall 
not  subject  it  to  liability. 

The  Northeastern  University  catalog  contains  current 
information  regarding  the  University  calendar,  admis- 
sions, degree  requirements,  fees,  and  regulations,  and 
such  information  is  not  intended  to  be  and  should  not 
be  relied  upon  as  a  statement  of  the  University's  con- 
tractual undertakings. 

Northeastern  University  reserves  the  nght  in  its  sole 
judgment  to  promulgate  and  change  rules  and  regula- 
tions and  to  make  changes  of  any  nature  in  its  program, 
calendar,  admissions  policies,  procedures  and  stan- 
dards, degree  requirements,  fees,  and  academic 
schedule  whenever  it  is  deemed  necessary  or  desir- 
able, including,  without  limitation,  changes  in  course 
content,  the  rescheduling  of  classes,  cancelling  of 
scheduled  classes  and  other  academic  activities,  and 
requiring  or  affording  alternatives  for  scheduled  classes 
or  other  academic  activities,  in  any  such  case  giving 
such  notice  as  is  reasonably  practicable  under  the  cir- 
cumstances. 

Northeastern  will  do  its  best  to  make  available  to  you 
the  finest  education,  the  most  stimulating  atmosphere, 
and  the  most  congenial  conditions  it  can  provide.  But 
the  quality  and  the  rate  of  progress  of  your  academic 
career  is  in  large  measure  dependent  upon  your  own 
abilities,  commitment,  and  effort.  This  is  equally  true 
with  respect  to  professional  advancement  upon  com- 
pletion of  the  degree  or  program  in  which  you  are  en- 
rolled. The  University  cannot  guarantee  that  you  will 
obtain  or  succeed  at  any  particular  job;  that  will  depend 
upon  your  own  skills,  achievement,  presentation,  and 
other  factors  such  as  market  conditions  at  that  time. 
Similarly,  in  many  professions  and  occupations  there 
are  increasing  requirements  imposed  by  federal  and 
state  statutes  and  regulatory  agencies  for  certification 
or  entry  into  a  particular  field.  These  may  change  during 
the  period  of  time  when  you  are  at  Northeastern,  and 
they  may  vary  from  state  to  state  and  from  country  to 
country.  While  the  University  stands  ready  to  help  you 
find  out  about  these  requirements  and  changes,  it  is 
your  responsibility  to  initiate  the  inquiry  because  the 
University  has  no  other  way  of  knowing  what  your  ex- 
pectations and  understandings  are. 

In  brief,  the  University  is  there  to  offer  you  educational 
opportunities  and  to  assist  you  in  finding  the  direction 
in  which  you  want  to  steer  your  educational  experience. 
But  you  are  a  partner  in  this  venture  with  an  obligation 
and  responsibility  to  yourself. 

Antidiscrimination  Policy  Northeastern  University  is 
committed  to  a  policy  of  equal  opportunity  to  all  stu- 
dents and  employees  without  regard  to  race,  color,  re- 
ligion, sex,  sexual  preference,  national  origin,  or 
handicap  or  veteran  status.  The  University  prohibits  dis- 
crimination in  all  matters  involving  admission,  registra- 


tion, and  all  official  relationships  with  students,  including 
evaluation  of  academic  performance. 

Equal  Opportunity  Employment  Policy 

Northeastern  University  is  an  equal  opportunity  em- 
ployer. It  is  institutional  policy  that  there  shall  be  no 
discrimination  against  any  employee  or  applicant  for 
employment  because  of  race,  color,  religion,  sex,  age, 
national  origin,  or  handicap  or  veteran  status. 

Northeastern  also  prohibits  discrimination  against  any 
employee  regarding  upgrading,  demotion  or  transfer, 
layoff  or  termination,  rates  of  pay  or  other  forms  of  com- 
pensation, and  selection  for  training.  In  addition,  the 
University  adheres  to  Affirmative  Action  guidelines  in  all 
recruitment  endeavors. 

Further,  Northeastern  will  not  condone  any  form  of 
sexual  harassment,  defined  as  the  use  of  unwelcome 
sexual  advances,  requests  for  favors,  and  other  verbal 
or  physical  conduct  of  a  sexual  nature  as  an  explicit  or 
implicit  condition  of  employment,  as  the  basis  for  em- 
ployment decisions,  or  when  such  conduct  interferes 
with  an  individual's  work  performance  by  creating  an 
intimidating,  hostile,  or  offensive  work  environment. 

Inquiries  concerning  our  equal  opportunity  policies 
may  be  referred  to  the  University  Title  IX  Coordinator/ 
Compliance  Officer  for  Section  504  of  the  Rehabilitation 
Act  of  1973,  Affirmative  Action  Office,  175  Richards 
Hall,  617-437-2133. 

Office  of  Services  for  the  Handicapped  The  Office 
of  Senyices  for  the  Handicapped  (OSH)  provides  a  va- 
riety of  support  services  and  general  assistance  to  all 
of  Northeastern's  disabled  students  and  employees. 
The  University's  efforts  to  comply  with  the  Rehabilitation 
Act  of  1973  are  coordinated  by  Ruth  Bork,  OSH  director, 
5  Ell  Center,  617-437-2675. 

Family  Educational  Rights  and  Privacy  Act 

In  accordance  with  the  Family  Educational  Rights  and 
Privacy  Act  of  1974,  Northeastern  University  permits  its 
students  to  inspect  their  records  wherever  appropriate 
and  to  challenge  specific  parts  of  them  when  they  feel 
it  necessary  to  do  so.  Specific  details  of  the  law  as  it 
applies  to  Northeastern  are  printed  in  the  Student  Hand- 
book and  are  distributed  annually  at  registrations  of  the 
University  College  and  graduate  schools. 

Emergency  Closing  of  the  University 

Northeastern  University  has  made  arrangements  to  no- 
tify students,  faculty,  and  staff  by  radio  when  it  becomes 
necessary  to  cancel  classes  because  of  extremely  in- 
clement weather.  Radio  stations  WBZ,  WEEI,  WHDH, 
WRKO,  WBCN,  WZOU,  and  WROR  are  authonzed  to 
announce  school  cancellations.  Since  ITFS-based  in- 
struction originates  from  live  or  broadcast  facilities  at 
the  University,  neither  the  classes  nor  the  courier  ser- 
vice operate  when  the  University  is  closed. 

Disclaimer  Tuition  rates,  all  fees,  rules  and  regula- 
tions, and  courses  and  course  content  are  subject  to 
revision  by  the  President  and  the  Board  of  Trustees  at 
any  time. 

Accreditation  Northeastern  University  is  accredited 
by  the  New  England  Association  of  Schools  and  Col- 
leges, Inc.,  which  accredits  schools  and  colleges  in  the 
six  New  England  states.  Accreditation  by  the  Associa- 
tion indicates  that  the  institution  has  been  carefully  eval- 
uated and  found  to  meet  standards  agreed  upon  by 
qualified  educators.

The  University 


Founded  in  1898,  Northeastern  University  is  in- 
corporated as  a  privately  endowed  nonsectarian 
institution  of  higher  learning  under  the  General 
Laws  of  Massachusetts.  By  special  enactment, 
the  State  Legislature  has  given  the  University 
general  degree-granting  powers.  The  University 
is  governed  by  a  Board  of  Trustees  elected  by 
and  from  the  Northeastern  University  Corporation, 
a  body  of  nearly  200  distinguished  business  and 
professional  men  and  women. 

From  its  beginning.  Northeastern  University's 
dominant  purpose  has  been  to  identify  commu- 
nity educational  needs  and  to  meet  these  needs 
in  distinctive  and  serviceable  ways.  The  Univer- 
sity has  not  duplicated  the  programs  of  other 
institutions,  but  has  pioneered  new  areas  of  ed- 
ucational service. 

A  distinctive  feature  of  Northeastern  University 
is  its  cooperative  plan  of  education,  under  which 
students  alternate  periods  of  work  and  study.  This 
time-tested  method  of  education  offers  students 
the  opportunity  to  gain  valuable  practical  expe- 
rience as  an  integral  part  of  their  college  pro- 
grams and  to  contribute  to  the  financing  of  their 
education.  All  Northeastern's  undergraduate  day 
colleges  operate  on  the  cooperative  plan,  which 
requires  five  years  for  the  student  to  earn  a  de- 
gree. The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  also  offers 
a  four-year  noncooperative  option.  Several  of 
Northeastern's  graduate  schools  have  structured 
their  programs  to  include  the  features  of  coop- 
erative education. 

In  the  field  of  adult  education,  programs  of 
study  have  been  developed  to  meet  a  variety  of 
needs.  University  College  offers  evening 
courses — offered  by  the  University  since  1906 — 
and  adult  day  courses  leading  to  associate  and 
bachelor's  degrees,  as  well  as  certificates.  In  ad- 
dition to  offering  day  undergraduate  programs  in 
computer  technology,  and  electrical  engineering 
and  mechanical  engineering  technology,  the 
School  of  Engineering  Technology  offers  evening/ 
part-time  certificate,  associate,  and  bachelor's 
degree  programs  in  technological  areas.  All  for- 
mal courses  of  study  leading  to  degrees  through 
part-time  programs  are  approved  by  the  Basic 
College  faculties  concerned  and  are  governed 
by  the  same  qualitative  and  quantitative  stan- 


dards as  the  regular  day  curricula.  Courses  are 
scheduled  in  the  day  and  evening  at  Northeast- 
ern's campuses  in  Boston,  Burlington,  and  Ded- 
ham.  Evening  courses  are  also  scheduled  in 
Belmont,  Brockton,  Chelmsford,  Framingham, 
Lynnfield,  Marlboro,  Marshfield,  Milford,  Revere, 
Westwood,  and  Weymouth.

colleges,  their  programs,  or  the  cooperative  plan 
of  education,  contact  the  Admissions  Office,

329-8000. 


Northeastern  University  has  numerous  distin- 
guished faculty  members,  many  of  whom  have 
received  prestigious  awards,  including  Sloan 
Scholarships,  Guggenheim  Fellowships,  and  Na- 
tional Institutes  of  Health  Research  Awards.  Fac- 
ulty members  lecture  the  world  over — from  just 
across  the  Charles  River  in  Cambridge  to  clear 
across  the  Pacific  Ocean  in  Sydney,  Australia. 

In  addition,  many  faculty  serve  as  United  States 
government  consultants  and  participate  on  a  va- 
riety of  national  and  international  committees.  But 
because  Northeastern  considers  education  its 
primary  mission  students  will  always  find  an  en- 
thusiastic and  accessible  faculty  to  answer  ques- 
tions, solve  problems,  and  stimulate  enquiring 
minds. 

Current  research  spans  almost  every  academic 
and  professional  field  and  is  not  limited  to  labo- 
ratory investigations  or  the  "hard"  sciences.  Every 
department  of  every  college  at  Northeastern  car- 
ries out  some  basic  or  applied  research  projects. 


Research 


Research,  whether  performed  in  the  laboratory, 
the  library,  or  in  the  field,  is  vital  to  the  University's 
operation.  It  stimulates  all  participants  and  en- 
sures a  thriving  academic  atmosphere.  Through 
research,  faculty  members  as  well  as  students 
stay  abreast  of  the  most  recent  developments  in 
their  particular  fields.  Faculty  who  disseminate 
this  knowledge  through  publishing,  speaking, 
and  teaching  help  ensure  a  university  education 
of  the  first  order. 

At  Northeastern  University,  research  and  schol- 
arly endeavors  are  taken  very  seriously  and  are 
actively  encouraged.  Each  year  the  faculty  re- 
ceive funding  for  an  ever-increasing  number  of 
research  projects.  Sponsorship  comes  from  a  va- 
riety of  sources.  Federal  agencies,  private  indus- 
try and  foundations,  and  the  University  itself  all 
contribute  to  Northeastern's  growing  research 
emphasis. 

While  much  of  this  research  is  carried  out  by 
the  faculty  members,  their  graduate  students,  and 
post-doctoral  research  associates,  ample  oppor- 
tunities also  exist  for  undergraduate  students.  Re- 
search participation  can  take  place  as  part  of 
regular  academic  programs,  as  specially  de- 
signed independent  studies,  or  through  cooper- 
ative work  assignments.  Research  activities  are 
encouraged  and  are  limited  only  by  the  student's 
own  motivation  and  curiosity. 


Buildings  and  Facilities 


In  1910,  Northeastern  University  began  construc- 
tion of  the  first  piece  of  property  acquired  at  its 
present  site  on  360  Huntington  Avenue.  Since 
those  early  days,  the  central  Boston  campus  has 
grown  to  occupy  over  fifty  acres  of  land  located 
in  close  proximity  to  such  cultural  landmarks  as 
Symphony  Hall,  the  Museum  of  Fine  Arts,  the 
Isabella  Stewart  Gardner  Museum,  Horticultural 
Hall,  and  the  Boston  Public  Library.  The  University 
is  within  walking  distance  of  the  Fenway,  a  large 
park  that  includes  a  beautiful  rose  garden  and 
extensive  jogging  paths.  Copley  Place,  the  Back 
Bay  shopping  district,  and  a  number  of  renowned 
hospitals,  including  Brigham  and  Harvard  teach- 
ing hospitals,  are  also  minutes  away. 

Major  transportation  facilities  serving  the  Bos- 
ton area  are  Logan  International  Airport,  two  rail 
terminals,  bus  terminals  serving  inter-  and  intra- 
state lines,  and  MBTA  subway-bus  service  within 
the  metropolitan-suburban  area.  There  is  a  sub- 
way stop  directly  in  front  of  the  campus.  For  mo- 
torists coming  from  the  west,  the  best  routes  to 
the  campus  are  the  Massachusetts  Turnpike  (Exit 
22)  and  Route  9,  of  which  Huntington  Avenue  is 
the  intown  section.  From  the  north,  motorists  may 
take  Routes  93  or  95  to  the  Southeast  Expressway 
(Route  3)  to  Massachusetts  Avenue,  which  inter- 
sects Huntington  Avenue.  Visitors  driving  from  the 
south  should  take  the  Southeast  Expressway  and 
the  Massachusetts  Avenue  exit. 

The  Boston  campus  is  divided  by  Huntington 
Avenue,  with  academic  and  administrative  build- 
ings on  one  side  and  most  dormitories  on  the 
other.  Many  of  the  educational  buildings  are  in- 
terconnected by  underground  passageways, 
which  are  especially  convenient  during  inclement 
weather. 

In  addition  to  several  off-campus  athletic  facil- 
ities and  University  College's  14  branch  locations. 
Northeastern  University  maintains  a  variety  of  af- 
filiations that  provide  its  students  access  to  spe- 
cialized equipment  and  facilities  at  other 
institutions  and  organizations.

Academic  Policies 


Admission  and  Registration 


Open  Admission  University  College  has  an 
open  admission  policy  that  allows  students  to  en- 
roll in  most  courses  simply  by  registering  for  the 
course.  It  is  not  necessary  to  submit  a  formal 
application  for  admission,  nor  are  entrance  ex- 
aminations or  College  Board  Examination  scores 
required. 

The  open  admission. policy  applies  equally  to 
nondegree  and  undergraduate  degree  students 
at  University  College.  Many  students  enroll  in 
courses  at  the  College  for  personal  enrichment 
or  to  gain  specific  career-related  skills.  Credits 
earned  for  these  courses  may  be  applied  to  a 
degree  program.  In  some  cases,  nondegree  stu- 
dents already  have  an  undergraduate  degree 
and  are  interested  in  specific  courses  for  their 
continuing  education.  Nondegree  students  are 
considered  members  of  the  University  College 
community  and  are  entitled  to  the  student  support 
services  offered  by  the  College.  Students  who 
decide  to  pursue  a  degree  program  at  University 
College  will  eventually  need  to  declare  a  major. 
See  page  17  for  further  information.  Special  re- 
quirements apply  to  students  entering  the  Bach- 
elor of  Science  in  Business  Administration  degree 
program.  For  detailed  information  about  the  ad- 
missions process  for  this  program,  please  see 
pages  42-43.

by  reporting  to  any  of  the  College's  14  campuses 
during  the  registration  periods  that  are  scheduled 
each  quarter.  It  is  not  necessary  to  register  at  the 
campus  where  a  particular  course  actually  meets; 
students  may  register  at  any  campus  for  a  course 
scheduled  at  any  other  campus.  All  students  must 
complete  a  registration  form  before  attending 
class;  attendance  at  class,  even  with  the  instruc- 
tor's permission,  does  not  constitute  registration. 
No  academic  credit  will  be  awarded  to  students 
who  are  not  properly  registered.  See  the  Aca- 
demic Calendar  on  pages  vi-viii  for  a  complete 
registration  schedule. 


Not  all  the  courses  listed  in  this  Bulletin  are 
offered  each  quarter.  A  complete  list  of  the 
courses  offered  in  any  particular  quarter  is  con- 
tained in  the  University  College  Schedule  Guide 
for  that  quarter.  A  Schedule  Guide  is  distributed 
for  the  fall,  winter,  spnng,  and  summer  quarters 
at  all  campuses  or  by  mail  upon  request  (tele- 
phone 617-437-2400). 

Quarter-Hour  Credit  Northeastern  University 
operates  on  a  quarter-hour  credit  system.  A  quar- 
ter-hour credit  is  the  equivalent  of  three-quarters 
of  a  semester  hour.  Students  who  wish  to  take 
courses  at  Northeastern  and  to  transfer  these 
credits  to  another  school  are  urged  to  receive 
permission  from  their  adviser  prior  to  registering. 

Help  with  Course  Selection  Academic  advis- 
ers (see  page  25)  are  available  at  all  campuses 
throughout  the  year  by  appointment  to  help  stu- 
dents plan  their  academic  programs  and  select 
courses.  Students  who  have  earned  credits  from 
other  schools  are  urged  to  have  their  transcripts 
evaluated  prior  to  the  registration  period  to  avoid 
duplicating  course  work  completed  at  other  ed- 
ucational institutions.  Advisers  are  also  available 
without  an  appointment  to  answer  general  ques- 
tions during  the  official  registration  periods  at  all 
campuses. 

Before  registering  for  a  course,  students  should 
read  the  course  description  in  this  Bulletin  to  de- 
termine if  it  is  necessary  to  have  taken  a  prereq- 
uisite course.  In  order  to  ensure  academic 
success,  students  are  strongly  advised  to  adhere 
to  course  prerequisites. 

Placement  Tests  Students  registering  for  math- 
ematics courses  offered  by  Lincoln  College  must 
take  a  mathematics  placement  test  given  during 
registration.  Students  registering  for  Mathematics 
1  (MTH  41 10)  must  take  a  placement  test  on  the 
first  night  of  class.  Some  students  may  be  re- 
quested to  register  for  Basic  Mathematics  1  (MTH 
4001),  a  three-quarter-hour  course  offering  ad- 
ditional preparation  in  math.  Students  registering 


Academic  Policies     17 


for  College  Algebra  1  (MTH  4107),  however,  must 
have  taken  the  placement  test  during  registration 
to  be  admitted  to  class.  Students  who  have  taken 
Introductory  Mathematics  courses  MTH  4081  and 
MTH  4082,  or  MTH  4001  and  MTH  4002,  must 
have  evidence  of  successful  completion  to  reg- 
ister. 

Students  enrolling  in  ENG  4110  Critical  Writing 
1 .  ENG  4380  Business  Writing  and  Reports  1 ,  and 
TCC  4101  Technical  Writing  1  will  be  asked  to 
complete  a  brief  writing  sample  at  their  first  class 
meeting.  Based  on  this  sample,  their  instructor 
may  refer  them  to  a  more  basic  course  in  English 
composition,  such  as  ENG  401 1  Elements  of  Writ- 
ing or  ENG  4005  English  for  International  Stu- 
dents 1. 

International  Students  Northeastern  University 
is  authorized  under  federal  law  to  enroll  nonim- 
migrant alien  students.  For  information  regarding 
eligibility  to  enroll  in  University  College,  come  to 
102  Churchill  Hall,  617-437-2400,  or  visit  the  In- 
ternational Student  Office  in  270  Holmes  Hall, 
telephone  617-437-2310. 

Maximum  Course  Load  New  students  may 
elect  up  to  12  quarter  hours  per  quarter  without 
special  permission  from  the  appropriate  Program 
Director.  Former  students  who  are  not  on  the 
Dean's  List  may  also  elect  up  to  12  quarter  hours 
per  quarter  without  special  permission.  Students 
who  are  on  the  Dean's  List  may  elect  a  maximum 
of  18  quarter  hours  per  quarter  without  special 
permission. 

Class  Changes  University  College  reserves  the 
right  to  cancel,  divide,  or  combine  classes  when 
necessary.  While  this  policy  ensures  that  students 
will  almost  never  be  excluded  from  a  class  be- 
cause it  is  oversubscribed,  it  also  means  that  a 
course  may  occasionally  be  canceled  because 
of  inadequate  enrollments.  Cancellations  are 
more  likely  to  occur  among  upper-level  or  ad- 
vanced courses  than  among  introductory 
courses.  To  avoid  course  cancellations,  students 
are  urged  to  register  early. 

Pass/Fall  Courses  Students  may  register  for 
one  elective  course  per  quarter  on  a  pass/fail 
basis.  To  be  eligible  for  pass/fail  status  in  a 
course,  the  student  must  be  in  good  academic 
standing  (not  on  academic  probation)  and  must 


have  completed  39  quarter  hours  of  academic 
work.  Thereafter,  the  student  may  register  for  one 
pass/fail  course  for  each  15  quarter  hours  of  suc- 
cessfully completed  work.  The  student  must  also 
meet  all  prerequisites  for  the  courses. 

To  be  graded  on  the  basis  of  pass/fail,  the 
student  must  obtain  a  Pass/Fail  Permission  Card 
signed  by  the  Program  Director  for  his  or  her 
program  of  study.  This  card  must  then  be  brought 
to  the  instructor  of  the  course.  In  addition,  the 
Registrar  must  be  notified  in  writing  by  the  student 
of  the  student's  intention  to  take  the  course  on  a 
pass/fail  basis  prior  to  the  fourth  meeting  of  the 
course. 

Auditing  Policy  Students  are  permitted  to  audit 
courses,  but  they  must  complete  the  usual  reg- 
istration forms  and  pay  regular  tuition  fees.  There 
is  no  reduction  in  fees  for  auditing.  An  auditor 
may  participate  in  class  discussion,  complete  pa- 
pers and  projects,  and  take  tests  and  examina- 
tions for  informal  evaluation.  However,  regardless 
of  the  amount  or  quality  of  work  completed,  no 
academic  credit  will  be  granted  at  any  time  for 
audited  courses. 

The  student's  decision  to  audit  a  course  must 
be  communicated  in  writing  to  the  Registrar  prior 
to  the  fourth  meeting  of  the  course.  No  exception 
to  this  procedure  can  be  approved  without  au- 
thorization by  the  Academic  Standing  Committee 
of  the  College. 

Withdrawal  Policy  A  student  who  wishes  to 
withdraw  from  a  course  must  complete  a  Course 
Drop  form  in  the  Registrar's  Office  or  notify  the 
Registrar  in  writing  of  his  or  her  intention  to  with- 
draw prior  to  the  week  in  which  final  examinations 
are  given.  The  forms  are  available  at  all  campus 
locations.  If,  after  the  first  class  meeting,  a  student 
misses  three  consecutive  class  meetings  of  a 
course,  he  or  she  will  automatically  be  withdrawn 
from  the  course  by  the  Registrar. 

Students  who  withdraw  or  are  withdrawn  from 
a  course  will  have  no  record  of  the  withdrawal  on 
their  transcripts.  (See  page  28  for  information  on 
tuition  refunds.) 

Degree  Candidacy  Admission 

Students  who  wish  to  be  admitted  to  University 
College  as  a  degree  candidate  must  follow  one

then  be  notified  by  mail  of  their  acceptance. 

Transfer  students  who  meet  the  above  require- 
ments may  petition  for  admission  as  soon  as  all 
of  their  transfer  credits  have  been  evaluated. 
Note:  Students  who  wish  to  be  admitted  to  the 
Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Administration 
program  must  meet  additional  requirements,  as 
listed  on  page  41. 

Regular  Admissions  Procedure  Under  this 
procedure,  students  must  follow  the  following 
steps: 

1.  Complete  an  application  for  admission.  Appli- 
cations are  available  in  the  Office  of  Academic 
and  Student  Affairs  and  at  all  branch  campus 
locations.  The  deadlines  for  receipt  of  these 
applications  are: 

Fall  quarter  -      September  9,  1985 

Winter  quarter     -      December  16,  1985 
Spring  quarter     -      March  17,  1986 
Summer  quarter  -     June  2,  1986 

2.  Submit  the  completed  application  for  admis- 
sion and  a  copy  of  high  school  transcript  or 
GED  certificate  to  the  Office  of  Academic  and 
Student  Affairs. 

3.  Arrange  an  admissions  appointment  with  an 
academic  adviser.  Day,  evening,  or  branch- 
campus  appointments  may  be  arranged  by 
calling  617-437-2400. 

Students  with  less  than  18  quarter  hours  of 
transfer  credit  (including  the  required  English 
courses)  who  wish  to  be  immediately  eligible  to 
apply  for  financial  aid  must  follow  the  regular  ad- 
missions procedure. 

Declaring  a  Major  Students  who  have  been 
admitted  to  University  College  may  declare  a  ma- 


jor by  completing  a  General  Petition.  General  Pe- 
titions are  available  at  all  campus  locations. 
Students  who  wish  to  have  a  General  Petition 
mailed  to  them  should  call  (617)  437-2400. 


Graduation  Requirements 

Except  for  certain  health  professions  programs, 
the  requirement  for  graduation  from  University 
College  is  174  quarter  hours  for  a  bachelor's  de- 
gree and  96  quarter  hours  for  an  associate's  de- 
gree, with  attainment  of  a  quality  point  average 
of  2.0  (an  average  grade  of  C).  Although  the 
credits  allowed  for  acceptable  work  completed 
elsewhere  by  transfer  students  count  toward  ful- 
fillment of  quantitative  graduation  requirements, 
neither  the  credits  nor  the  grades  earned  in  such 
courses  are  included  in  the  quality  point  com- 
putations for  graduation.  Course  requirements  for 
each  degree  are  different  and  are  outlined  in  this 
Bulletin. 

Course  Substitutions  and  Waivers  Students 
may  request  to  have  a  required  course  in  an 
academic  program  waived  and  to  substitute  an- 
other course  in  place  of  the  required  course.  Such 
requests  are  not  encouraged,  although  the  Uni- 
versity recognizes  that  students  may  occasionally 
have  very  good  reasons  for  requesting  such  waiv- 
ers. To  request  that  a  required  course  be  waived, 
students  must  complete  a  Petition  for  Course 
Substitutions  and  Waivers  and  submit  the  petition 
to  the  Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs. 
Course  petition  forms  are  available  in  102 
Churchill  Hall  and  at  all  branch  campus  locations. 
All  petitions  for  course  substitutions  and  waivers 
are  routinely  forwarded  to  the  Director  of  the  ac- 
ademic program  in  which  the  student  is  enrolled. 
The  Program  Director  in  turn  makes  a  recommen- 
dation concerning  the  request  for  the  waiver  to 
the  University  College  Committee  on  Academic 
Standing.  All  required  course  substitutions  and 
waivers  of  program  requirements  must  be  ap- 
proved by  the  Committee  on  Academic  Standing. 

Graduation  with  Honor  Bachelor's  degree 
candidates  who  have  achieved  distinctly  superior 
attainment  in  their  academic  work  will  be  gradu- 
ated with  honor,  high  honor,  or  with  highest  honor, 
depending  on  the  final  quality  point  average  ob- 
tained. To  be  considered  for  graduation  with 
honor,  a  student  must  have  completed  a  minimum 
of  72  quarter  hours  of  work  at  University  College. 
Courses  transferred  from  other  educational  insti- 


Academic  Policies     19 


tutions  will  not  be  considered  in  determining 
honor  graduates. 

Residence  Requirement  Every  candidate  for 
the  bachelor's  or  associate's  degree  must  fulfill 
the  minimum  residence  requirement.  The  resi- 
dence requirement  is  defined  as  the  satisfactory 
completion  of  at  least  45  quarter  hours  of  course 
work  in  University  College  immediately  preceding 
graduation.  At  least  12  of  the  45  quarter  hours 
must  be  in  the  candidate's  major  field  of  study. 

Since  the  University  College  residence  require- 
ment prescribes  the  completion  of  at  least  45 
quarter  hours  of  credit  in  residence  immediately 
preceding  graduation,  a  student  who  intends  to 
graduate  in  any  academic  year  may  not  use 
courses  at  any  other  institution  for  the  purpose  of 
transferring  credit. 

A  student  whose  enrollment  in  a  degree  pro- 
gram is  interrupted  for  a  period  of  one  year  or 
more  will  be  reinstated  in  the  program  at  the  time 
of  re-entry  into  University  College. 

in  Absentia  Status  If  a  student  moves  beyond 
a  reasonable  commuting  distance  from  University 
College  or  its  branch  campuses  but  has  com- 
pleted 135  or  more  quarter  hours  of  credit  (in- 
cluding a  maximum  of  60  quarter  hours  of  transfer 
credit),  the  Committee  on  Academic  Standing  will 
consider  a  petition  to  allow  the  student  to  com- 
plete his  or  her  requirements  for  a  University  Col- 
lege degree  at  another  approved  college.  The 
courses  remaining  must  be  completed  within  two 
years  from  the  date  of  official  approval  of  the 
student's  in  absentia  status. 

Senior  Status  Procedure  All  potential  gradu- 
ates will  be  polled  during  the  fall  quarter  to  de- 
termine their  intention  to  graduate  during  the 
current  academic  year.  To  be  considered  for 
graduation  in  June,  a  student  must  return  a  Com- 
mencement Data  Card  prior  to  the  start  of  the 
winter  quarter  of  the  academic  year  in  which  he 
or  she  expects  to  graduate.  September  gradu- 
ates will  be  polled  during  the  month  of  June. 

Throughout  the  academic  year,  the  Office  of 
Academic  and  Student  Affairs  issues  Senior  Sta- 
tus Reports  on  request  to  potential  graduates  in 
order  to  assist  them  with  the  selection  of  courses 
required  for  program  completion.  Seniors  are  en- 
couraged to  request  a  Senior  Status  Report  dur- 
ing the  summer  prior  to  the  academic  year  in 
which  they  plan  to  graduate.  Petition  forms  for 
status  reports  are  available  in  102  Churchill  Hall 
on  the  Boston  campus  and  at  the  main  office  of 
each  branch  campus. 


Credit  by  Examination  During  ttie  Senior  Year 

CLEP  or  PEP  examinations  (see  below)  may  be 
taken  by  students  during  their  final  year  of  study 
provided  they  have  met  the  45-quarter-hour  res- 
idence requirement  for  graduation  (this  page). 
Because  of  the  time  required  for  CLEP  and  PEP 
exams  to  be  graded  and  scores  returned  to  the 
University,  students  requesting  June  graduation 
must  take  their  CLEP  and  PEP  exams  no  later 
than  the  winter  quarter  of  their  senior  year. 

Transfer  Credit  Policy 

Transfer  Credit  from  Another  Institution  Stu- 
dents may  transfer  credit  from  accredited  insti- 
tutions of  higher  education  when  courses 
completed  are  applicable  to  the  student's  pro- 
gram in  University  College.  The  minimum  course 
grade  acceptable  for  transfer  credit  is  C,  or  2.0 
on  a  four-point  scale.  An  accredited  institution  of 
higher  education  is  an  institution  having  recog- 
nition and  membership  in  one  of  the  six  regional 
accrediting  associations  recognized  by  the 
Council  on  Post-secondary  Accreditation. 

Transfer  Credit  Procedure  A  student  who 
wishes  to  obtain  a  tentative  evaluation  of  credits 
earned  from  another  institution  must  file  a  Transfer 
Credit  Petition  with  the  Office  of  Academic  and 
Student  Affairs.  The  student  must  then  write  to  the 
registrar  of  the  institution  previously  attended  and 
request  that  an  official  transcript  (one  bearing  that 
institution's  seal)  be  fonwarded  to  the  Office  of 
Academic  and  Student  Affairs,  102  Churchill  Hall, 
Northeastern  University,  360  Huntington  Avenue, 
Boston,  MA  02115.  The  transcripts  should  indi- 
cate courses  completed,  credits,  and  grades 
earned.  Upon  receipt  of  official  transcripts,  the 
Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs  will  issue 
a  tentative  evaluation  of  all  credits  as  they  apply 
to  the  student's  program  in  University  College. 
Official  awarding  of  credit  will  be  recorded  on  the 
student's  University  College  transcript  when  ad- 
mission is  approved. 

Validation  of  Required  Upper-Level  Business 
Courses  for  Transfer  Credit  Students  entering 
the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Administra- 
tion degree  program  may  be  required  to  validate 
required  upper-level  business  courses  that  they 
have  taken  outside  the  framework  of  the  program. 
"Validation"  is  the  set  of  procedures  that  tests 
whether  an  upper-level  course  completed  at  the 
lower  division  of  a  baccalaureate  program  should 
be  accepted  for  transfer  credit  in  the  upper  divi- 
sion of  a  baccalaureate  program  recognized  and 


20    Academic  Policies 


approved  by  the  American  Assembly  of  Colle- 
giate Schools  of  Business.  The  Bachelor  of  Sci- 
ence in  Business  Administration  program  offered 
by  University  College  conforms  with  all  standards 
established  by  the  American  Assembly  of  Colle- 
giate Schools  of  Business  (AACSB).  AACSB  has 
been  recognized  by  the  Council  for  Post-second- 
ary Accreditation  and  by  the  United  States  Office 
of  Education  as  the  sole  accrediting  organization 
for  university  baccalaureate  and  master's  degree 
programs  in  business  administration. 

The  rationale  for  validation  is  based  on  the  dis- 
tinction between  lower-level  and  upper-level 
courses.  The  content  and  focus  of  most  upper- 
level  courses  presupposes  a  certain  amount  of 
prior  academic  work  and  general  knowledge. 
Often,  students  who  complete  an  upper-level 
course  without  first  having  been  exposed  to  the 
bodies  of  knowledge  presupposed  by  that  course 
are  unable  to  benefit  fully  from  the  upper-level 
course  and  therefore  fail  to  develop  as  much  as 
they  should  in  their  understanding  of  the  subject 
matter.  In  recognition  of  this  problem,  University 
College  has  adopted  specific  validation  proce- 
dures. Their  purpose  is  to  ensure  that  the  knowl- 
edge a  student  has  acquired  in  an  upper-level 
business  course  completed  at  the  lower  division 
closely  approximates  in  focus  and  content  the 
knowledge  that  University  College  feels  is  ac- 
ceptable for  a  particular  upper-level  course  in  a 
specific  area  of  study. 

Generally,  students  will  be  able  to  validate  pre- 
viously earned  course  credits  by  taking  a  se- 
quential course  in  a  reserved  section,  a 
department-approved  examination,  or  a  CLEP 
(College  Level  Examination  Program)  or  PEP 
(Proficiency  Examination  Program)  examination. 

For  further  information  about  course  validation, 
please  see  page  40.  Students  should  also  talk 
with  a  University  College  academic  adviser  for 
further  information  about  the  validation  of  upper- 
level  business  courses  for  transfer  credit. 

Evaluation  of  International  Educational  Cre- 
dentials Students  requesting  an  evaluation  of 
international  educational  credentials  for  transfer 
credit  in  University  College  will  be  assessed  a  fee 
of  $30.  The  evaluation  will  be  issued  by  the  Office 
of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs  upon  receipt  of 
a  Transfer  Credit  Petition,  a  completed  Educa- 
tional Chronology  Form,  official  copies  of  all  tran- 
scripts translated  into  English,  and  a  check  in  the 
amount  of  $30,  payable  to  Northeastern  Univer- 
sity. The  official  assessment  of  international  edu- 
cational credentials  will  be  made  in  accordance 


with  current  standards  for  awarding  advanced 
standing  credit  at  University  College  or  as  rec- 
ommended by  the  Center  for  International  Higher 
Education  Documentation.  The  $30  fee  will  be 
waived  for  any  University  College  student  who 
has  enrolled  in  a  degree  program  pnor  to  re- 
questing the  evaluation. 

Course(s)  at  Another  College  or  University    A 

student  who  is  enrolled  in  a  degree  program  at 
University  College  and  who  wishes  to  complete 
one  or  more  courses  at  another  institution  for 
transfer  purposes  must  first  file  a  petition  to  enroll 
in  such  courses  with  the  Office  of  Academic  and 
Student  Affairs.  Courses  taken  at  other  institutions 
may  be  disallowed  unless  a  petition  has  been 
submitted  and  approved.  Seniors  (students  in 
their  final  year  of  study  at  University  College) 
should  refer  to  information  about  the  residence 
requirement  (see  page  19  for  further  clarification 
of  this  policy). 

Credit  by  Examination  University  College  will 
award  credit  by  examination  provided  the  ex- 
amination does  not  represent  a  duplication  of 
other  previously  earned  academic  credit.  Credit 
is  granted  for  successful  completion  of  exami- 
nations currently  available  through  the  College 
Level  Examination  Program  (CLEP)  of  the  College 
Entrance  Examination  Board  and  through  the  Pro- 
ficiency Examination  Program  (PEP)  of  the  Amer- 
ican College  Testing  Program.  Both  programs 
have  been  designed  to  assist  students  in  acquir- 
ing college-level  credit  for  knowledge  acquired 
through  nontraditional  means,  such  as  on-the-job 
training,  educational  television,  correspondence 
and  extension  study,  and  independent  study.  In- 
formation about  these  programs  is  available  in 
the  Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs  at 
University  College  and  at  the  Northeastern  Uni- 
versity Counseling  and  Testing  Center. 

Modern    Language    Proficiency   Examination 

Students  may  be  eligible  to  receive  credit  for  pro- 
ficiency in  a  modern  language.  Examinations  are 
currently  offered  in  French,  Spanish,  German, 
and  Italian.  Students  should  contact  the  Modern 
Language  Department,  360  Holmes  Building,

Noncollegiate  Experience  Credit  Law  enforce- 
ment students  may  be  granted  up  to  18  hours  of

ing one  or  more  of  the  noncollegiate  credit  ex- 
aminations   that    have    been    made    available 


Academic  Policies    21 


through  their  program  director's  office.  Examina- 
tions are  periodically  scheduled  by  the  Counsel- 
ing and  Testing  Center. 

Some  liberal  arts  students  may  petition  for  non- 
collegiate  experience  credit.  See  page  91  (law 
enforcement)  and  page  108  (liberal  arts)  for  more 
details  on  opportunities  for  noncollegiate  experi- 
ence credit. 

Noncollegiate  experience  credit  is  not  available 
to  business  students,  except  as  available  through 
CLEP  or  PEP  examinations.  (See  "Credit  by  Ex- 
amination," page  20.) 

Credit  cannot  be  awarded  through  noncolle- 
giate experience  petitions  or  examinations  when 
an  appropriate  examination  is  available  through 
CLEP  or  PEP. 


Credit  for  Extrainstitutional  Learning  Extra 
institutional  learning  is  that  which  takes  place  out- 
side the  sponsorship  of  legally  authorized  and 
accredited  postsecondary  educational  institu- 
tions. The  term  applies  to  learning  acquired  from 
formal  courses  sponsored  by  associations,  gov- 
ernments, business,  and  industry. 

In  awarding  credit  for  extrainstitutional  learning. 
University  College  utilizes  the  National  Guide  to 
Credit  Recommendations  for  Noncollegiate 
Courses,  published  annually  by  the  American 
Council  on  Education. 

Students  applying  for  credit  for  extrainstitu- 
tional learning  must  submit  a  Transfer  Credit  Pe- 
tition and  provide  official  credentials  from  the 
sponsoring  noneducational  organization  to  the 
Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs  at  Uni- 
versity College.  The  credit  may  be  applied  toward 
degree  requirements  at  University  College  if  rec- 
ommended in  the  National  Guide,  provided  credit 
is  not  otherwise  obtainable  through  CLEP,  PEP, 
or  noncollegiate  experience  credit  programs  at 
University  College. 


Grading  System 


A  student's  work  in  each  course  is  evaluated  by 
the  instructor,  who  awards  a  letter  grade  at  the 
end  of  the  quarter.  This  grade  is  officially  re- 
corded by  the  Registrar's  Office.  The  grades  and 
symbols  used  are  given  below,  together  with  the 
numerical  equivalents  used  for  computing  quality 
point  averages:

Grade  Reports  and  Transcripts  All  efforts  will 
be  made  to  mail  grades  prior  to  the  beginning  of 
the  following  quarter.  A  supplementary  grade  re- 
port will  be  issued  when  a  missing  grade  or  a 
grade  change  is  received.  University  regulations 
prohibit  issuing  grades  by  telephone.  Grade  re- 
ports of  degree  candidates  indicate  both  their 
quarterly  quality  point  average  and  their  cumu- 
lative quality  point  average. 

Students  may  obtain  a  transcript  of  their  grades 
by  making  a  request  in  writing  to  the  Registrar's 
Office,  120  Hayden  Hall,  Northeastern  University, 
360  Huntington  Avenue,  Boston,  MA  02115.  Un- 


22    Academic  Policies 


official  transcripts  are  issued  free  of  charge;  of- 
ficial transcripts  that  bear  the  University  seal  cost 
$2. 

Quality  Point  Average  The  method  of  figuring 
the  quality  point  average  is  as  follows:  the  nu- 
merical equivalent  of  each  grade  received  is  mul- 
tiplied by  the  credit  hours  earned;  the  quality 
points  are  added  together,  then  divided  by  the 
student's  total  quarter  hours.  An  example  follows:

Hours  (15) 

Pass/Fail  grades  (S,  U,  and  X),  Incompletes  (I), 
and  Audits  (L)  are  not  included  in  the  quality  point 
average.  Similarly,  transfer  credits  are  not  in- 
cluded in  quality  point  averages.  The  total  earned 
hours  appearing  on  the  student's  transcript,  how- 
ever, include  both  transfer  credits  and  S  grades. 

A  cumulative  grade  point  average  below  2.0  is 
unacceptable  and  will  not  allow  a  student  to  con- 
tinue in  University  College  or  to  receive  a  degree 
from  Northeastern  University.  The  F  grade  is  a 
failure  and  requires  repetition  of  the  course  in  its 
entirety. 

Academic  Monitoring  Degree  candidates  with 
45  quarter  hours  of  credit  will  be  monitored  quar- 
terly. Those  whose  QPAs  fall  below  2.0  will  be 
contacted  and  offered  all  possible  assistance  by 
the  Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs.  They 
will  continue  to  be  monitored  until  their  QPA  is  2.0 
or  better.  Students  who  feel  they  would  benefit 
from  academic  assistance  are  encouraged  to  call 
the  Qffice  at  61 7-437-2400  to  arrange  an  appoint- 
ment. 

The  I  Grade  The  I  grade,  or  Incomplete,  may 
be  given  only  when  the  student  fails  to  take  the 
final  examination  for  a  course.  An  instructor  may 
decide  that  a  student  has  done  so  poorly  in  the 
course  that  even  a  perfect  grade  in  a  make-up 
final  examination  could  not  raise  the  grade  from 
F;  in  this  case  F  is  the  proper  grade,  regardless 
of  the  missed  final  examination. 
If  the  student  fails  to  complete  some  other  ma- 


jor portion  of  the  course  work  (examination, 
quizzes,  major  paper,  etc.)  a  letter  grade  is  as- 
signed. This  grade  can  be  changed  when  the 
deficiency  that  led  to  the  assigned  letter  grade  is 
made  up  to  the  satisfaction  of,  and  in  the  manner 
prescribed  by,  the  instructor. 

All  deficiencies  must  be  made  up  in  the  pre- 
scribed manner  no  later  than  12  months  following 
the  recording  of  the  grade.  Students  requesting 
an  exception  to  this  policy  must  petition  the  Ac- 
ademic Standing  Committee  of  University  College 
in  writing.  A  student  may  also  elect  to  repeat  the 
course  at  his  or  her  expense. 

Pass/Fail  Grades  Satisfactory  completion  of 
work  in  all  courses  taken  on  a  pass/fail  basis  will 
be  designated  on  the  transcript  by  the  letter  "S." 
Unsatisfactory  work  will  be  designated  on  the 
transcript  by  the  letter  "U."  Any  unsatisfactory 
grade  must  be  handled  according  to  the  existing 
policy  of  University  College  but  may  never  be 
cleared  by  enrolling  in  the  same  course  on  the 
basis  of  the  pass/fail  system  of  grading. 

An  Incomplete  in  a  course  taken  on  a  pass/fail 
basis  will  be  designated  by  the  letter  "X"  on  the 
transcript  and  will  be  treated  according  to  the 
normal  procedure  for  grades  of  Incomplete. 

Dean's  List  All  degree  candidates  who  have 
taken  a  minimum  of  27  quarter  hours  in  three 
consecutive  quarters  (for  example,  fall,  winter, 
spnng)  and  who  have  completed  all  their  courses 
with  a  quality  point  average  of  3.0  or  better  shall 
be  placed  on  the  Dean's  List.  These  students 
receive  certificates  of  commendation  from  the 
Dean  of  University  College.  See  page  18  for  in- 
formation about  graduation  with  honor. 

Attendance,  Homework,  and  Examinations 

Students  are  expected  to  attend  all  meetings  of 
the  classes  in  which  they  are  registered  unless 
excused  in  advance.  Absence  from  regularly 
scheduled  classes  will  seriously  affect  the  stu- 
dent's academic  standing.  A  student  who  is  con- 
sistently absent  from  class  will  be  withdrawn  from 
the  course  by  the  Registrar. 

Absence  Because  of  Illness  All  students  who 
are  absent  from  school  because  of  extended  ill- 
ness and  who  do  not  wish  to  be  withdrawn  should 
inform  the  Registrar's  Office  in  writing. 

Homework  The  specific  work  required  for  each 
course  in  University  College  is  determined  by  the 
instructor.  In  general,  it  is  expected  that  University 
College  students  will  spend  an  average  of  six  to 
eight  hours  per  week  outside  of  class  on  assign- 


Academic  Policies    23 


merits  for  each  course.  Students  who  are  absent 
are  responsible  for  obtaining  their  homework  as- 
signments from  their  instructors  or  other  students 
in  their  classes.  Homework  assignments  are  not 
available  in  the  Office  of  Academic  and  Student 
Affairs. 

Examinations  Tests  are  scheduled  throughout 
each  quarter  at  the  option  of  the  instructor  and 
are  regarded  as  part  of  the  term's  course  work. 
A  final  examination  is  held  at  the  end  of  each 
quarter  in  each  course  unless  an  announcement 
is  made  to  the  contrary. 

Missed  Final  Examinations  A  student  who 
misses  a  final  examination  will  be  given  a  grade 
of  I  (Incomplete).  A  student  does  not  automati- 
cally have  the  right  to  make  up  a  missed  final 
examination.  Students  must  petition  for  this  priv- 
ilege and  must  pay  a  fee  of  $30  for  each  makeup 
examination.  Petitions  are  available  in  102 
Churchill  Hall  and  at  all  suburban  administrative 
offices.  Petitions  are  available  for  four  weeks  after 
the  term  has  ended.  Students  will  be  notified  prior 
to  the  date  of  the  make-up  exam  whether  or  not 
their  petition  has  been  approved. 

Students  who  make  up  a  missed  final  exam  will 
have  a  letter  or  pass/fail  grade  substituted  as 
appropriate  for  the  I  grade  on  their  transcripts. 

l\/liscellaneous  Policies 

Students'  Rights  and  Responsibilities     The 

University  subscribes  to  the  view  that  all  students 
have  certain  rights  and  freedoms.  For  these  rea- 
sons, the  University  has  adopted  and  published 
specific  policies  and  procedures  governing  the 
following  matters:  students'  rights  and  freedoms, 
general  conduct,  student  discipline,  disclosure  of 
information  from  students'  records,  and  University 
judicial  procedures.  Judicial  procedures  are  re- 
lated to  issues  of  discipline  and  conduct,  the  right 
of  students  to  appeal  judgments  of  their  aca- 
demic performance,  grievances  based  on  the 
fact  that  a  student  is  handicapped,  and  allega- 
tions of  sexual  harassment.  All  policies  and  pro- 
cedures governing  the  above  matters  may  be 
found  in  the  University  College/Lincoln  College 
Student  Handbook.  Copies  are  available  in  102 
Churchill  Hall  at  the  Boston  campus,  617-437- 
2400.  Copies  are  also  generally  available  at  each 
of  the  University's  branch  campus  locations. 

Family  Educational  Rights  and  Privacy  Act    In 

accordance  with  the  Family  Educational  Rights 
and  Privacy  Act  of  1974,  Northeastern  University 
permits  students  to  inspect  their  records  when- 


ever appropriate  and  to  challenge  specific  parts 
of  them  when  they  feel  it  necessary.  Specific  de- 
tails of  the  law  as  it  applies  to  Northeastern  are 
available  in  the  University  College/Lincoln  Col- 
lege Student  Handbook. 

Disciplinary  Action  The  Committee  on  Regu- 
lations and  Discipline  has  the  authority  to  dismiss 
from  the  College,  place  on  probation,  or  remove 
from  the  list  of  degree  candidates  any  student 
who,  because  of  disruptive  or  illegal  conduct  or 
poor  character,  is  considered  an  unsuitable  mem- 
ber of  the  College  community.  The  Committee  on 
Regulations  and  Discipline  is  an  ad  hoc  subcom- 
mittee of  the  University  College  Committee  on 
Academic  Standing,  It  is  convened  at  the  request 
of  the  Committee  on  Academic  Standing.

polled  regarding  their  intention  to  attend  com- 
mencement by  the  Northeastern  University  Com- 
mencement Committee  during  the  spring  quarter. 

Changes  In  Requirements  The  continuing  de- 
velopment of  University  College  requires  frequent 
revisions  of  the  curricula.  When  no  undue  and 
unusual  hardship  is  imposed  on  students  be- 
cause of  these  changes,  students  are  expected 
to  meet  the  requirements  of  the  most  current  Bul- 
letin. If  a  particular  student  finds  it  impossible  to 
meet  those  requirements,  the  Bulletin  for  the  year 
in  which  he  or  she  declared  a  major  is  binding. 
Note:  Students  who  are  planning  to  pursue  a 
bachelor's  degree  in  business  and  who  obtained 
fewer  than  88  quarter  hours  of  credit  by  Septem- 
ber 1983  are  required  to  pursue  the  new  Bachelor 
of  Science  in  Business  Administration  degree

Career  and  Academic  Counseling  Services 


Through  a  wide  variety  of  career  and  academic 
counseling  services,  University  College  is  pre- 
pared to  assist  students  in  making  both  educa- 
tional and  career  decisions.  The  College  does  this 
by  providing  academic  advisers  and  career 
counselors,  by  offering  credit  and  noncredit  ca- 
reer-planning workshops  and  special  programs, 
and  by  serving  as  a  link  to  other  student  support 
services  offered  by  Northeastern  University. 

The  services,  courses,  and  programs  outlined 
on  the  following  pages  have  been  designed  with 
specific  educational  and/or  career-planning  is- 
sues in  mind.  Students  are  urged  to  read  this 
section  carefully. 

Open  House  Programs 

Individuals  who  are  thinking  about  enrolling  in 
University  College  for  the  first  time  are  encour- 
aged to  attend  an  Open  House.  Open  Houses 
introduce  potential  students  to  the  many  Univer- 
sity College  programs  and  services  designed  to 
meet  the  educational,  job-related,  and  personal 
needs  of  adult  part-time  students.  They  also  orient 
new  students  to  the  University  as  a  whole  and 
address  concerns  that  many  students  have 
about: 

•  choosing  courses  and  registering 

•  securing  financial  aid 

•  obtaining  career  or  personal  counseling 

•  managing  work,  school,  and  family  responsibil- 
ities. 

Persons  interested  in  a  degree  program  will  have 
an  opportunity  to  speak  with  advisers  about  de- 
gree requirements,  transfer  of  credit  from  other 
colleges,  and  additional  procedures  for  becom- 
ing a  student  at  University  College.  Students  cur- 
rently enrolled  in  University  College  are  also 
invited  to  attend  an  Open  House. 

Open  Houses  are  ordinarily  scheduled  each 
quarter  at  selected  campus  sites  at  or  about  the 
same  time  that  registration  takes  place.  Since 
space  is  limited,  students  are  urged  to  express 
their  interest  in  attending  an  Open  House  prior  to 
any  given  registration  period.  (See  the  Academic 
Calendar  on  pages  vi-viii  for  a  complete  regis- 
tration schedule.)  Persons  who  wish  to  attend  an 


Open  House  should  notify  the  Office  of  Academic 
and  Student  Affairs  by  telephoning  61 7-437-2400. 

Academic  Advisers 

Academic  advisers  are  available  day  and  eve- 
ning by  appointment  in  the  Office  of  Academic 
and  Student  Affairs  and  at  branch-campus  loca- 
tions. They  are  competent  to  assist  students  in 
planning  a  program  suitable  to  their  educational 
and  career  objectives.  Advisers  can  also  answer 
questions  relating  to  degree  requirements, 
course  sequences,  and  proper  scheduling  of 
courses.  Appointments  may  be  arranged  by  tele- 
phoning the  Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Af- 
fairs at  617-437-2400  or  by  coming  in  person  to 
102  Churchill  Hall  at  the  Boston  campus.  There 
is  no  charge  for  this  service. 

Academic  advisers  are  also  available  without 
appointment  to  answer  general  questions  during 
registration  periods  at  all  campuses.  Throughout 
the  year,  academic  advisers  are  available  by  ap- 
pointment at  branch  campuses.  Appointments  at 
the  Burlington  Suburban  Campus  may  be  ar- 
ranged by  calling  617-272-5500.  Appointments 
at  all  other  campuses  are  arranged  through  the 
Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs  at  the 
Boston  campus,  617-437-2400.  Lincoln  College 
students  may  arrange  appointments  by  calling 
617-437-2500. 

Tutorial  Services 

Through  the  Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Af- 
fairs, University  College  offers  tutorial  assistance 
in  several  subjects.  Tutoring,  which  is  on  a  one- 
to-one  basis,  provides  an  opportunity  for  student 
and  tutor  to  focus  on  specific  problems  that  might 
not  have  been  covered  during  class  time.  Stu- 
dents may  request  tutorial  information  from  the 
Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs,  102 
Churchill  Hall,  617-437-2400.  A  flyer  describing

Hall  and  at  all  branch  locations. 

Career  Counseling

phone 61 7-437-2400  to  arrange  an  appointment 
with  a  career  counselor.  This  service  is  designed 


26    Career  and  Academic  Counseling  Services 


for  students  who  need  help  in  choosing  a  career 
or  in  developing  effective  job-hunting  strategies. 
A  career  counselor  will  also  help  students  utilize 
additional  services  and  programs  offered  by  Uni- 
versity College  and  by  other  offices  at  Northeast- 
ern University. 

Self-Assessment  and  Career  Development 

One  of  the  strongest  motivations  for  continuing 
education  is  the  desire  for  career  advancement 
or  change.  In  order  to  help  students  develop  ca- 
reer and  educational  planning  skills,  University 
College  offers  a  three-credit  course  in  career  de- 
velopment. Self-Assessment  and  Career  Devel- 
opment (INT  4110)  is  designed  for  persons  who 
feel  undecided  about  a  career  choice  and  who 
need  help  in  defining  career  and  educational  ob- 
jectives for  themselves.  For  a  complete  descrip- 
tion, see  page  182. 

Job-Search  Seminars 

Each  quarter  the  Placement  Office  and  the  Office 
of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs  offer  a  series  of 
two-hour,  evening,  job-search  seminars.  The 
seminars  are  specifically  designed  for  students 
who  have  identified  the  field  or  career  area  in 
which  they  would  like  to  work.  Students  planning 
to  participate  should  currently  be  looking  for  a  job 
or  be  anticipating  a  job  change  in  the  near  future. 
These  seminars  are  intended  to  help  students 
assess  their  skills,  define  their  immediate  career 
direction,  develop  effective  job-search  strategies, 
write  resumes,  and  prepare  for  job  interviews. 
Seminar  schedules  are  announced  in  the  Student 
Newsletter  and  in  classes  two  weeks  prior  to  each 
seminar  series.  Students  who  wish  to  participate 
in  the  job-search  seminars  must  reserve  a  place 
by  calling  the  University  College  Placement  Office 
at  617-437-2428. 

Professional  Experience  Program 

In  conjunction  with  Northeastern's  Department  of 
Career  Development  and  Placement,  University 
College  has  developed  a  new  program  to  assist 
selected  students  in  gaining  entry  into  profes- 
sional positions.  The  program  begins  operation  in 
the  fall  quarter,  1985. 

The  Professional  Experience  Program  provides 
students  with  an  opportunity  to  work  in  paid  po- 
sitions related  to  their  major,  usually  for  periods 
of  six  months.  Students  in  the  program  may  earn 
three  to  12  academic  credits  for  documented 
learning  that  takes  place  during  their  professional 


placement.  The  amount  of  credit  earned  will  be 
related  to  the  learning  activities  and  outcomes 
identified  in  their  learning  contracts. 

Interested  students  may  obtain  an  information 
packet  from  the  Office  of  Academic  and  Student 
Affairs,  102  Churchill  Hall,  on  the  Boston  campus. 
The  packet  includes  a  full  description  of  the  pro- 
gram, a  list  of  admission  criteria,  placement  pro- 
cedures, and  an  application  form.  Students  who 
wish  to  discuss  the  program  in  the  context  of  their 
particular  career  needs  should  schedule  an 
appointment  with  a  University  College  career 
counselor.  Call  617-437-2400  to  arrange  an  ap- 
pointment. 

Core  Career  Courses  for  Women 

University  College  offers  a  special  group  of  per- 
sonal assessment  and  career  development 
courses  for  women  interested  in  a  business  ca- 
reer. Through  core  career  courses,  women  learn 
to  match  their  skills  and  competencies  to  those 
needed  in  specific  career  areas  in  business.  This 
process,  in  turn,  helps  a  woman  determine  which 
specific  jobs  in  business  she  is  most  suited  to 
pursue.  The  core  career  courses  are  also  de- 
signed to  acquaint  women  with  the  organizational 
dynamics  of  business  settings  and  to  help  them 
develop  a  basic  understanding  of  the  quantitative 
and  technical  skills  needed  for  various  career 
areas  in  business. 

A  complete  list  of  these  courses  may  be  found 
on  page  182.  They  are  open  to  any  interested 
student.

of  charge  to  all  part-time  students.  Services  for 
University  College  students  include: 

Personal  Counseling  This  involves  discussing 
with  a  counselor  such  concerns  as  adjusting  to 
being  a  student  (again  or  for  the  first  time),  getting 
along  with  people,  feeling  anxious  or  depressed, 
as  well  as  problems  centered  around  family,  sex, 
drugs,  or  alcohol. 


Career  and  Academic  Counseling  Services    27 


Educational-Vocational  Counseling  This  in- 
volves assisting  students  in  making  decisions 
about  choice  of  major  and/or  career.  It  typically 
involves  an  in-depth  look  at  one's  self,  including 
strengths,  aspirations,  and  values.  Tests  are  often 
helpful  in  the  process  of  self-understanding.  The 
kinds  of  tests  available  include  interest,  ability, 
personality,  and  aptitude.  This  kind  of  planning  is 
usually  done  individually  with  a  counselor,  al- 
though small  groups  may  be  organized  if  this 
approach  seems  more  appropriate. 

The  goals  of  the  Center's  educational-voca- 
tional planning  service  are  complementary  to 
those  of  the  University  College  career-planning 
courses.  Therefore,  interested  persons  are  en- 
couraged to  explore  both  options  for  career  ex- 
ploration and  planning  and  then  choose  the 
service  that  seems  best  suited  to  their  needs. 

Study  Skills  Workshops  (Available  during  the 
day  only)  Workshops  are  offered  periodically  to 
assist  students  in  becoming  more  effective  in  or- 
ganizing their  time,  in  note  taking,  in  preparing 
for  and  taking  exams,  and  in  other  areas  related 
to  effective  academic  performance. 

Career  and  Graduate  School  Information    The 

Center  maintains  a  reference  room  with  informa- 
tion on  a  wide  variety  of  careers  and  graduate 
and  professional  schools.

Tuition  and  Fees 


Tuition  and  fees  are  refundable  only  as  stated 
under  "Refund  of  Tuition."  Cfiecks  and  drafts  for 
all  cfiarges  are  to  be  made  to  the  order  of  North- 
eastern University. 

Tuition  for  Courses  in  Other  Departments  or 
Colleges  of  the  University 

University  College  students  assigned  to  courses 
in  other  departments  or  colleges  of  the  University 
are  charged  the  tuition  fees  effective  in  the  de- 
partments or  colleges  in  which  they  are  enrolled. 

initial  Registration  Fee 

A  nonrefundable  $10  registration  fee  for  first-time 
students  is  billed  with  tuition  fees. 

Tuition 

Tuition  for  all  credit  courses  is  $80  per  quarter 
hour  of  credit.  Charges  for  registration  and  tuition 
for  special  courses  are  at  the  rate  specified  for 
each  course.  There  is  no  reduction  in  fees  in 
auditing  courses. 

Noncredit  courses  are  charged  at  quarter-hour 
rates  comparable  to  those  of  credit  courses  meet- 
ing on  an  equivalent  contact-hour  schedule. 

Students  are  not  permitted  to  attend  class  ses- 
sions or  take  any  examination  or  test  until  they 
have  paid  their  tuition  fees  or  have  made  satis- 
factory arrangements  for  payment. 

It  is  the  student's  responsibility  to  ensure  that 
all  tuition  charges  and  fees  are  paid  when  due.  If 
a  bill  has  not  been  received  prior  to  the  start  of 
classes  each  quarter,  the  student  should  come  in 
person  to  the  Bursar's  Office,  where  a  bill  will  be 
processed. 

Any  discrepancies  in  billing  should  be  imme- 
diately brought  to  the  attention  of  the  Bursar's 
Office.  If  there  is  a  billing  problem,  the  undisputed 
portion  of  the  bill  should  be  paid  on  time  to  avoid 
any  additional  late  fees.  Failure  to  receive  a  bill 
through  the  mail  or  to  pay  the  undisputed  portion 
of  the  bill  are  not  justification  for  late  payment  of 
amounts  actually  owed. 

Students  will  not  be  advanced  in  class  standing 
or  permitted  to  reenroll  in  the  University  nor  will 
degrees  be  conferred  until  all  financial  obligations 
to  the  University  have  been  met. 


Tuition  Budget  Payment  Plans  Occasionally 
situations  develop— usually  beyond  the  control  of 
the  student — that  make  it  difficult  to  meet  the  pay- 
ments in  the  manner  outlined  above.  Under  such 
circumstances  the  student  is  advised  to  contact 
the  Bursar's  Office,  where  a  deferred  payment 
agreement  may  be  worked  out.  The  only  deferred 
payment  plan  offered  is  as  follows  and  applies 
only  to  the  amount  owed  for  the  current  quarter: 

1st  payment     Va  due  1st  week  of  quarter 

2nd  payment    Vs  due  approx.  4th  week  of  quarter  , 

Balance  Vs  due  approx.  8th  week  of  quarter 

Such  arrangements  should  be  made  before  the 
end  of  the  first  week  of  the  quarter  or  within  one 
week  of  the  date  of  registration  if  the  student  ■ 
enters  late.  Deferred  payment  of  tuition  entails  a  i 
fee  of  $10,  which  is  levied  on  all  accounts  not  1 
paid  by  the  end  of  the  second  week  of  classes.  1 
Failure  to  take  immediate  action  will  result  in  a  ( 
late  payment  fee  of  $50.  j 

Tuition  Underwritten  by  Employers  An  in- 
creasing number  of  companies  are  underwriting 
part  or  all  of  the  cost  of  tuition  of  students  in  their 
employ.  In  cases  where  payment  is  to  be  made 
directly  by  the  employer  to  the  University,  the 
student  should  furnish  the  Bursar's  Office  with  a 
purchase  order  covering  registration  or  a  state- 
ment from  an  officer  of  the  company  certifying 
that  the  company  is  underwriting  the  tuition.  In 
cases  where  students  are  being  reimbursed  by 
their  employer,  tuition  must  be  paid  by  the  student 
according  to  the  prescribed  regulations  to  avoid 
late  payment  charges. 

Veterans'  Benefits  Any  veteran  covered  by 
Public  Law  89-358  should  report  to  116  Hayden 
Hall  to  fill  out  the  proper  enrollment  forms. 

Late  Payment  Fee  Bills  for  tuition  and  fees  are 
payable  in  accordance  with  the  due  date  shown. 
A  late  payment  fee  of  $50  will  be  charged  for 
failure  to  make  payments  in  accordance  with  the 
prescribed  regulations.

spect to  refunds  of  tuition  is  as  follows:

forms  of  aid  in  order  to  meet  the  full  costs  of 
education.  The  Pell  Grant  is  an  award  and,  unlike 
a  loan,  does  not  have  to  be  repaid.  Half-time 
students  taking  at  least  six  credit  hours  each 
quarter  may  now  apply  for  awards  ranging  up  to 
one-half  the  maximum  allowable  by  law,  contin- 
gent upon  the  total  cost  of  education.  Applica- 
tions are  available  in  the  Office  of  Financial  Aid, 
275  Richards  Hall,  or  by  writing  to  the  Pell  Grant 
Program,  Post  Office  Box  84,  Washington,  DC 
20044. 


Massachusetts  State  Scholarship  Massachu- 
setts residents  enrolled  as  full-time  students  (i.e., 
12  credit  hours  per  quarter  for  fall,  winter,  and 
spring)  may  be  eligible  for  a  Massachusetts  State 
Scholarship.  To  apply,  students  must  submit  a 
Massachusetts  Financial  Aid  Form  (MFAF)  for  res- 
idents of  Massachusetts.  The  deadline  date  for 
applications  is  March  1.  Massachusetts  State 
Scholarships  are  awarded  based  on  need  as  de- 
termined by  the  Massachusetts  Financial  Aid 
Form. 

Adult  Learners  Program  The  Massachusetts 
Board  of  Regents  of  Higher  Education  has  estab- 
lished the  Massachusetts  Adult  Learners  Program 
as  a  need-based,  state-funded,  financial  aid  pro- 
gram designed  primarily  to  assist  Aid  for  Depen- 
dent Children  (AFDC)  recipients  in  obtaining  a 
college  education.  The  amount  of  each  award 
varies  depending  on  the  applicant's  demon- 
strated need,  but  it  will  not  exceed  $1 ,320  per 
year. 

To  be  considered  for  the  program,  applicants 
must  be  full-  or  part-time  undergraduate  students 
at  Northeastern,  taking  at  least  one  three-credit- 
hour  course.  They  must  also  have  been  perma- 
nent, legal  residents  of  Massachusetts  for  one 
year  prior  to  receiving  the  award.  Awards  are 
presented  according  to  state-established  priori- 
ties. Female  AFDC  recipients  with  children  be- 
tween the  ages  of  14  and  18  have  highest  priority; 
the  next  highest  level  of  candidate  includes  all 
other  AFDC  recipients,  followed  by  candidates 
who  meet  the  basic  residency,  academic,  and 
need  requirements.  Awards  are  made  on  a  first- 
come,  first-served  basis.  Applications  are  avail- 
able at  the  Office  of  Financial  Aid. 

Guaranteed  Student  Loan  Program  The  Guar- 
anteed Student  Loan  Program  enables  a  student 
to  borrow  a  maximum  of  $2,500  per  academic 
year  directly  from  a  bank,  credit  union,  or  other 
participating  lender  in  the  student's  home  com- 
munity. The  loan  is  guaranteed  by  a  state  or  pri- 
vate nonprofit  agency  and  is  insured  by  the 
federal  government.  The  interest  on  the  loan  will 
be  subsidized  by  the  federal  government  while 
the  student  is  in  school.  The  loan  must  be  re- 
paid. 

Students  whose  families  have  an  adjusted 
gross  income  below  $30,000  will  be  eligible  for  a 
loan  if  they  are  enrolled  or  have  been  accepted 
for  enrollment  at  least  half-time  in  an  institution  of  |

higher  education  and  are  citizens  or  nationals  of 
the  United  States.  Students  whose  families  ex- 
ceed this  income  ceiling  may  be  eligible  if  they 
can  show  financial  need  in  accordance  with  US 
Department  of  Education  guidelines.  All  students 
are  eligible  for  federal  interest  benefits.  Under 
these  benefits,  the  federal  government  will  pay 
the  interest  until  the  student  begins  repaying  the 
loan. 

The  legal  maximum  loan  borrowed  through  the 
Guaranteed  Student  Loan  Program  for  any  single 
academic  year  is  $2,500.  The  maximum  loan  for 
an  entire  undergraduate  program  is  $12,500. 

The  maximum  loan  amount  in  one  academic 
year  may  never  exceed  the  cost  of  education, 
less  other  financial  aid  received.  In  practice,  how- 
ever, the  Guarantee  Agency  in  the  state  where 
the  loan  is  written  may  set  loan  limits  less  than 
these  maximums.  In  the  final  analysis,  the  lender 
decides  the  amount  of  the  loan. 

Repayment  of  a  Guaranteed  Loan  usually  be- 
gins six  months  after  a  student  withdraws  or  grad- 
uates from  an  educational  institution  or  ceases  to 
carry  at  least  a  half-time  course  load.  The  repay- 
ment period  may  be  as  long  as  ten  years.  The 
amount  of  the  payments  depends  upon  the  size 
of  the  debt  and  the  student's  ability  to  pay;  in 
most  cases,  the  borrower  must  pay  at  least  $600 
per  year. 

During  the  repayment  period,  the  loan  carries 
a  simple  interest  rate  of  nine  percent  per  annum, 
which  is  paid  by  the  borrower. 

Note:  For  students  who  have  previously  partic- 
ipated in  the  Guaranteed  Student  Loan  Program 
and  who  have  outstanding  loans  at  seven  per- 
cent, the  interest  rate  on  subsequent  loans  will 
continue  to  be  seven  percent. 

Repayment  on  loans  may  be  deferred  if  the 
borrower  returns  to  at  least  half-time  study  at  an 
eligible  educational  institution.  Deferment  of  re- 
payment is  also  allowed  for  up  to  three  years  of 
service  in  the  armed  forces,  Peace  Corps,  or  full- 
time  programs  conducted  by  ACTION.  In  most 
cases,  the  actual  repayment  schedule  will  be  es- 
tablished by  the  lender  shortly  after  the  borrower 
leaves  school. 


Students  who  borrow  funds  through  the  Guar- 
anteed Student  Loan  Program  are  subject  to  the 
legal  responsibilities  listed  below: 

1.  Students  must  report  any  of  the  following 
changes  to  the  lending  institution: 

a.  withdrawal  from  school 

b.  transfer  to  another  school 

c.  reduction  of  course  load  to  less  than  half- 
time 

d.  change  of  address  or  parents'  address 

e.  change  of  name. 

2.  Students  are  liable  for  any  false  information 
that  they  report  on  the  application. 

3.  Students  must  use  the  loan  funds  for  educa- 
tional purposes  only. 

4.  If  a  student  fails  to  repay  the  loan  as  agreed 
under  the  Federally  Insured  Loan  Program 
Regulations,  legal  action  can  result. 

Failure  to  comply  with  any  of  the  above  respon- 
sibilities could  make  a  student  ineligible  for  any 
future  loans  from  the  program. 

Additional  information  about  financial  aid  is 
available  from  the  Office  of  Financial  Aid,  254 
Richards  Hall,  617-437-3190. 

All  federal  financial  aid  programs  are  subject 
to  change  depending  on  adequate  and  con- 
tinuing federal  support.

ment and  education  programs  to  meet  the  con- 
temporary vocational  and  avocational  needs  of 
Northeastern's  graduates.  The  Alumni  Associa- 
tion has  also  initiated  a  successful  group  travel 
program  to  provide  the  alumni  of  Northeastern 
with  interesting,  economical  opportunities  in  for- 
eign travel.  Notice  of  all  activities  is  provided  in 
the  Northeastern  alumni  magazine  and  in  special

become  members  of  these  organizations.  The 
clubs  meet  periodically  with  a  varied  program, 
often  in  conjunction  with  professional  and  athletic 
events,  faculty  visits,  and  service  projects.  Alumni 
class  organizations  conduct  reunions  for  their  re- 
spective classes  every  five  years. 

The  Association  sponsors  and  assists  constit- 
uent organizations  that  focus  on  common  profes- 
sional and  avocational  interests  and  college 
affiliations.  These  groups  have  their  own  officers 
and  conduct  various  programs  throughout  the 
year. 

In  addition,  alumni  volunteers  in  many  metro- 
politan areas  across  the  nation  represent  the  Ad- 
missions Office  at  high  schools  and  community 
colleges.

Purpose 

University  College  recognizes  that  adult  students 
seek  educational  opportunities  in  business  to  sat- 
isfy many  different  professional  needs.  To  help 
meet  these  needs,  the  College  offers  a  wide  se- 
lection of  business  and  business-related  courses, 
as  well  as  structured  academic  programs.  Among 
the  available  options  are  1 1  certificate  programs, 
1 1  associate  degree  programs,  and  four  bacca- 
laureate degree  programs.  All  certificate  and  de- 
gree programs  have  the  common  objective  of 
offering  students  an  opportunity  to  achieve 
professional  competence  in  a  formal  set  of  busi- 
ness subjects  while  laying  the  foundation  for  fur- 
ther professional  growth. 

The  Programs 

Certificates  in  Business  University  College  of- 
fers 1 1  different  certificate  programs  for  individ- 
uals seeking  to  build  or  advance  a  marketable 
specialization  in  business.  The  professional  areas 
covered  by  the  certificate  programs  include  ac- 
counting; compensation  and  benefits  manage- 
ment; computer  programming  and  systems 
analysis;  finance;  hotel  and  restaurant  manage- 
ment; human  resources  management;  marketing; 
operations  management;  purchasing;  real  estate; 
and  transportation  and  physical  distribution  man- 
agement. 

The  University  College  certificate  programs  in 
business  are  designed  for: 

•  students  who  plan  to  complete  an  associate's 
degree  and  possibly  a  bachelor's  degree  but 
who  first  want  to  acquire  the  marketable  skills 
offered  in  the  certificate  program 

•  individuals  seeking  an  intensive  course  of  study 
in  a  business  discipline  but  who  do  not  wish  to 
acquire  a  degree 

•  individuals  already  holding  a  degree  who  wish 
to  acquire  specialized  knowledge  for  career 
change  or  professional  development. 


The  certificate  programs  are  designed  so  that 
transfer  into  a  related  degree  program  is  possi- 
ble. Certificates  can  be  earned  based  on  aca- 
demic work  completed  within  the  last  five  years. 
Detailed  information  on  these  certificate  pro- 
grams, together  with  a  recommended  course  se- 
quence for  completing  them,  appears  in  the 
section  on  certificate  programs,  pages  131-141. 

Associate  in  Science  Degree  Northeastern  of- 
fers part-time  students  a  choice  of  1 1  business 
programs  leading  to  the  Associate  in  Science 
degree:  accounting,  business  administration,  fi- 
nance, hotel  and  restaurant  management,  human 
resources  management,  industrial  management, 
management  information  systems,  marketing, 
purchasing,  real  estate,  and  transportation  and 
physical  distribution  management. 

These  programs  provide  breadth  of  perspec- 
tive through  exposure  to  a  well-balanced  se- 
quence of  liberal  arts  courses.  Specialized 
knowledge  for  future  managerial  growth  may  be 
acquired  through  the  study  of  a  core  of  profes- 
sional business  courses  and  a  major  or  concen- 
tration in  a  business  discipline.  Students  who 
have  completed  a  certificate  program  may  enroll 
in  an  associate  degree  program.  While  the  credits 
earned  in  a  certificate  program  may  be  applied 
toward  this  degree,  completion  of  a  certificate 
program  is  not  required  for  the  associate  degree. 
To  be  awarded  the  associate  degree,  a  student 
must  successfully  complete  the  96  quarter  hours 
of  course  credit  detailed  on  the  following  pages. 

Baciielor  of  Science  in  Business  Administra- 
tion Degree  The  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Busi- 
ness Administration  degree  is  offered  in 
accounting,  management,  and  management  in- 
formation systems.  Students  who  have  clearly  de- 
cided to  pursue  a  baccalaureate  degree  in 
business  should  enroll  in  the  courses  detailed  on 
pages  42-43  prior  to  petitioning  for  admission  to 
the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Administra- 
tion degree  program.  These  courses  will  provide 
students  with  the  broad  educational  foundation 
needed  for  the  study  of  professional-level  courses 
in  business  administration. 

Students  who  wish  to  earn  one  of  the  Associate 
in  Science  degrees  in  business  prior  to  entry  into

ness Administration  degree  program  is  restricted 
to  students  who  have  maintained  a  2.0  cumulative 
grade-point  average  and  completed  a  minimum 
of  80  quarter  hours  (60  semester  hours)  of  credit, 
including  certain  basic  courses  in  required  sub- 
jects, either  in  University  College  or  at  another 
accredited  institution.  There  is  a  special  appli- 
cation form  for  admission  to  this  program. 

The  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Adminis- 
tration degree  program  conforms  with  all  stan- 
dards established  by  the  American  Assembly  of 
Collegiate  Schools  of  Business  (AACSB),  which 
has  been  recognized  by  the  Council  for  Post- 
secondary  Accreditation  and  by  the  United  States 
Office  of  Education  as  the  sole  accrediting  or- 
ganization for  university  bachelor's  and  master's 
degree  programs  in  business  administration. 
While  there  are  more  than  2,000  college  and  uni- 
versity business  programs  in  the  United  States, 
fewer  than  10  percent  of  these  institutions  offer 
business  programs  that  are  fully  accredited  by 
AACSB.  Northeastern  University  is  unique  in  the 
New  England  region  in  that  both  its  full-time  and 
part-time  baccalaureate  degree  business  pro- 
grams are  accredited. 

Validation  Requirement 

"Validation"  is  the  term  used  to  describe  a  set  of 
procedures  that  tests  whether  an  upper-level 
course  completed  at  the  lower  division  of  a  bac- 
calaureate program  should  be  accepted  for 
transfer  credit  in  the  upper  division  of  an  AACSB- 
approved  baccalaureate  degree  program. 

There  are  three  approved  validation  methods. 
1.  Sequential  Course.  Students  who  enroll  in  the 
Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Administration 
degree  program  can  validate  a  course  taken  at 
University  College  or  elsewhere  by  successfully 
completing  a  course  that  is  sequential  to  the 
course  already  completed.  The  sequential  course 
must  be  taken  in  a  reserved  section.  For  example, 
successful  completion  of  Cost  Accounting  2  in  a 
reserved  section  can  validate  Cost  Accounting  1, 
regardless  of  where  the  student  completed  Cost 


Accounting  1.  Similarly,  by  successfully  complet- 
ing Marl<eting  Management  1  in  a  reserved  sec- 
tion, a  student  can  validate  Introduction  to 
Marketing  1. 

2.  College  Level  Examination  Program  (CLEP) 
and/or  Proficiency  Examination  Program  (PEP). 
These  standardized  examinations  can  be  used  to 
validate  some  previously  taken  upper-level  busi- 
ness courses. 

3.  Departmental  Examination.  In  cases  where  a 
sequential  course  does  not  exist  or  is  not  desired 
by  a  student,  and  no  appropriate  CLEP  or  PEP 
examination  exists,  validation  can  be  accom- 
plished through  a  departmental  examination. 

Please  note  that  certain  business  courses  do 
not  require  validation.  They  include  the  following: 
Accounting  Principles  1,  2,  and  3;  Introduction  to 
Business  and  Management  1,  2,  and  3;  Introduc- 
tion to  Data  Processing  and  Information  Systems 
1  and  2;  Law  1  and  2;  and  all  computer  program- 
ming language  courses.  Also,  business-related 
courses  in  other  disciplines  do  not  have  to  be 
validated.  Examples  are  courses  in  economics 
and  statistics. 

In  addition,  previously  taken  upper-level  busi- 
ness courses  that  are  not  required  for  a  particular 
business  concentration  are  considered  to  be 
electives  and  do  not  need  validating.  For  exam- 
ple, an  upper-level  course  in  cost  accounting 
would  not  require  validation  for  management  con- 
centrators, since  cost  accounting  is  not  a  re- 
quired course  for  management  concentrators  in 
the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Administra- 
tion degree  program. 

Reserved  and  Open  Sections  All  scheduled 
sections  of  certain  University  College  business 
courses  required  for  a  business  degree  are  clas- 
sified as  either  reserved  or  open.  Eligibility  to 
register  for  reserved  or  open  sections  depends 
on  the  total  number  of  course  credits  (including 
transfer  credits)  that  a  student  has  accumulated. 

A  reserved  section  of  a  course  is  restricted  to 
students  who  have  accumulated  80  or  more 
course  credits.  Reserved  sections  of  certain  busi- 
ness courses  are  mandatory  for  students  who 
have  enrolled  in  one  of  the  three  Bachelor  of 
Science  in  Business  Administration  degree  pro- 
grams. Please  refer  to  the  Schedule  Guide  for 
details  on  which  courses  are  reserved  and  how 
to  register  for  them. 

An  open  section  of  a  course  is  one  in  which 
students  may  register  without  any  restrictions.

Planning  a  Program  of  Study 


Current  Students  Currently  enrolled  students, 
including  those  who  have  already  been  awarded 
transfer  credit  by  the  Office  of  Academic  and 
Student  Affairs,  may  have  their  credits  reeval- 
uated toward  one  of  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in 
Business  Administration  degree  programs  by 
completing  a  General  Petition,  which  will  enable 
students  to  review  their  degree  program  options 
and  select  the  program  that  best  suits  their 
needs.  The  General  Petition  may  be  requested 
by  calling  617-437-2400.  Petitions  are  also  avail- 
able at  all  campus  locations.  After  receiving  an 
evaluation  of  their  transfer  credits,  students  may 
schedule  an  appointment  with  an  academic  ad- 
viser to  discuss  the  alternative  academic  pro- 
grams available  to  them. 

New  Students  Students  who  plan  to  enter  Uni- 
versity College  to  work  toward  the  Bachelor  of 
Science  in  Business  Administration  degree 
should  submit  to  the  Office  of  Academic  and  Stu- 
dent Affairs  transcripts  of  previously  completed 
college-level  coursework  and  a  Transfer  Credit 
Petition.  (Transfer  Credit  Petitions  may  be  re- 
quested by  calling  617-437-2400.  They  are  also 
available  at  all  campus  locations.)  Students  will 
receive  by  mail  a  transfer  credit  evaluation  and  a 
suggested  plan  of  study  to  prepare  for  admission 
to  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Business  Adminis- 
tration degree  program.  When  this  paperwork  has 
been  completed,  students  are  encouraged  to 
schedule  an  appointment  with  an  academic  ad- 
viser to  discuss  their  programs. 

Recommended  Lower-Level  Courses 


Students  who  do  not  have  any  academic 
courses  that  may  be  transferred-  from  another  ed- 
ucational institution  or  program  should  plan  to 
meet  with  an  academic  adviser  early  in  their  stud- 
ies in  University  College.  These  students  will  be 
required  to  complete  80  quarter  hours  of  credit, 
including  English  courses  ENG  4110,  4111,  and 
4112;  Mathematics  courses  MTH  41 1 0  and  4111; 
and  a  social  science  elective  from  the  group  of

pleted and  returned  to  the  Office  of  Academic 
and  Student  Affairs  to  initiate  the  admissions  pro- 
cess. This  petition  may  be  obtained  at  all  campus 
locations  or  by  calling  617-437-2400. 

To  be  admitted  to  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in 
Business  Administration  degree  program,  stu- 
dents must  have  completed  at  least  80  quarter 
hours  of  credit  with  an  overall  grade  point  aver-

Bachelor  of  Science  Degree  Students  who  ac 
cumulated  88  or  more  quarter  hours  of  credit  by 
September  1 983  were  allowed  to  continue  to  work 
toward  a  bachelor's  degree  under  the  course  and 
program  requirements  in  effect  until  the  fall  quar- 
ter of  1 983.  As  of  the  fall  1 983,  new  students  were 
eligible  only  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science  in  Busi- 
ness Administration  (BSBA)  degree.  However, 
students  continuing  in  these  programs  must  com- 
plete the  degree  by  June  1986,  since  these  pro- 
grams will  no  longer  be  available  after  that  date. 
These  students  should  consult  the  1982-83  Uni- 
versity College  Bulletin  for  details  on  degree  re- 
quirements. 

Business  l\ilnor  Students  enrolled  in  Bachelor 
of  Science  degree  programs  outside  the  area  of 


business  may  choose  to  minor  in  business.  A 
minor  in  business  may  be  attractive  to  individuals 
seeking  to  enhance  their  professional  credentials 
without  necessarily  obtaining  a  business  degree. 
Individuals  who  earn  an  associate  degree  in  a 
business  program  and  transfer  to  a  bachelor's 
degree  program  other  than  business  have  the 
option  of  earning  a  minor  in  business  administra- 
tion. Students  earning  a  bachelor's  degree  in  a 
nonbusiness  area  are  permitted  to  accumulate 
up  to  44  quarter  hours  (25  percent  of  the  credits 
toward  a  bachelor's  degree)  in  business  subjects. 
Any  credits  accumulated  beyond  this  limit  from 
business  courses  cannot  be  used  to  fulfill  the 
graduation  requirements  for  a  Bachelor  of  Sci- 
ence degree  in  a  nonbusiness  area.

Aims 

Programs  in  allied  health  are  offered  through  Uni- 
versity College  to  help  students  prepare  for  ad- 
vancement and  service  in  hospitals  and  other 
health  agencies  through  part-time  study. 

Degree  programs,  both  associate  and  bacca- 
laureate, are  designed  to  provide  professional 
specialization  and  general  educational  develop- 
ment. All  programs  are  designed  to  meet  the  ac- 
creditation standards  of  the  Committee  on  Allied 
Health  Education  and  Accreditation  (CAHEA)  of 
the  American  Medical  Association  (AMA)  and  of 
licensing  or  registration  boards  where  such  exist. 

The  CAHEA  is  responsible  for  adopting  essen- 
tials (minimal  standards  for  AMA  accreditation) 
for  allied  health  education  programs  with  the  ad- 
vice of  AMA  section  councils,  medical  specialty 
societies,  and  allied  health  organizations.  The 
United  States  Commissioner  of  Education  and  the 
nongovernment  Council  on  Post-secondary  Ac- 
creditation recognize  the  AMA  and  collaborating 
organizations  for  the  purpose  of  accrediting  ed- 
ucational programs  for  established  allied  health 
occupations. 

Course  Distribution 

It  is  the  goal  of  Northeastern  University  to  offer 
students  a  balanced  educational  background.  To 
this  end,  the  following  curriculum  design  is  in 
effect  for  most  programs: 

Professional  and  professionally  related  35-50% 
Basic  and  allied  sciences  25-40% 

Liberal  arts  25-40% 

Students  choose  electives  to  fulfill  course  dis- 
tribution requirements  and  to  equal  the  number 
of  credits  required  for  the  specific  degree. 


Clinical  Assignments 


Clinical  assignments  are  generally  available  for 
students  whose  programs  require  directed  ap- 
plied study  in  a  clinical  setting.  In  most  instances 
lectures  are  presented  at  the  University,  while 
clinical  practice  is  conducted  at  various  hospitals 
or  other  health  agencies  in  the  Greater  Boston 
area.  Positions  for  applied  clinical  studies  are 
often  offered  on  a  competitive  basis,  with  the  stu- 
dent's academic  performance  in  both  didactic 
and  basic  professional  courses  used  as  the  basis 
for  acceptance.  Academic  credit  earned  during 
the  practicum  is  usually  applicable  toward  the 
degree  requirement. 

Students  accepting  clinical  assignments  in 
health  facilities  are  expected  to  adhere  to  require- 
ments of  the  facility,  all  of  which  are  outside  Uni- 
versity control. 

Preprofessional  Medical  Courses 

Each  year  a  number  of  students  enroll  in  Univer- 
sity College  courses  in  order  to  complete  science 
courses  required  for  entrance  into  a  doctoral  pro- 
gram at  a  health  professional  school.  Most  of 
these  persons  already  possess  a  bachelor's  de- 
gree in  a  nonscience  field,  although  a  few  may 
be  enrolled  in  a  Bachelor  of  Science  or  Bachelor 
of  Arts  degree  program  in  University  College.  The 
information  provided  below  is  for  those  students 
who  plan  to  apply  for  admission  to  schools  of 
medicine,  osteopathy,  dentistry,  podiatry,  or  op- 
tometry. Those  who  wish  to  pursue  veterinary 
medicine  may  need  to  meet  different  entrance 
requirements  and  should  consult  the  chair  of  the 
Health  Professions  Advisory  Committee  for  addi- 
tional advice. 

Course  Requirements  Professional  schools  for 
each  of  the  doctoral  health  professions  have  quite 
similar  undergraduate  college  course  require- 
ments. These  courses  must  be  completed  before 
one  may  enroll  in  medical  school,  and  generally 
should  be  completed  before  one  takes  the  ad- 
mission test  (MCAT,  DAT,  etc.)  that  is  part  of  the 
admissions  process.

The  requirement  of  one  year  generally  means 
eight  semester  hours  of  course  work.  Northeast- 
em's  quarter  hour  is  equal  to  three  quarters  of  a 
semester  hour.  A  12-quarter-hour,  three-quarter 
course  sequence  in  University  College  is  there- 
fore equivalent  to  nine  semester  hours  and  easily 
meets  the  one-year  requirement. 

Northeastern  University's  Health  Professions 
Advisory  Committee  provides  academic  advice 
and  help  with  professional  school  applications  for 
students  in  any  of  the  University's  health  pro- 
grams. While  advice  is  available  to  anyone  en- 
rolled in  a  course,  the  Committee  can  prepare 
evaluation  letters  only  for  those  who  have  taken 
sufficient  work  at  Northeastern  to  be  able  to  have 
at  least  two  Northeastern  faculty  members  write 
letters  to  the  Committee.

!  Health  Management  (Major  Code  860) 


Bachelor  of  Science  Degree 


The  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  program  in 
Health  Management  is  intended  for  individuals 
who  wish  to  prepare,  on  a  part-time  basis,  for 
entry  into  or  advancement  in  managerial  positions 
in  the  health  care  field.  This  program  includes 
special  concentration  of  professional  courses  to 
prepare  for  licensure  examination  in  long-term 
care  administration. 

The  health  management  curriculum  encompas- 
ses course  work  from  a  variety  of  disciplines. 
Courses  are  planned,  in  many  instances,  to  be 
taken  in  a  preset  sequence,  which  first  introduces 
broad  concepts  and  then  gives  students  an  op- 


portunity to  apply  such  concepts  in  specific 
professional  courses.  Some  management 
courses  serve  as  prerequisites  to  more  special- 
ized health  care  administration  courses.  Similarly, 
certain  health  care  administration  courses  serve 
as  foundations  for  other  electives.  Students  must 
adhere  to  the  prerequisites  in  their  course  selec- 
tion. The  following  is  a  summary  of  planned 
course  sequences.  It  is  not  necessary  to  take 
sequence  A  before  sequence  B,  and  so  on;  pre- 
requisites apply  only  to  courses  within  a  se- 
quence.

Medical  Laboratory  Science— Medical  Technology 


Medical  laboratory  science  is  concerned  with  lab- 
oratory examination  of  nnateriai  necessary  for 
proper  monitoring  of  health  and  for  the  diagnosis 
and  treatment  of  illness.  Working  in  a  variety  of 
specialized  fields  such  as  microbiology,  blood 
banking,  hematology,  clinical  chemistry,  or  as 
generalists  in  all  these  areas,  medical  laboratory 
technicians  and  technologists  are  important 
health  professionals. 

The  associate  degree  medical  laboratory  tech- 
nician works  under  the  direct  supervision  of  a 
medical  technologist  and  performs  most  of  the 
common  medical  laboratory  tests.  The  bachelor's 
degree  medical  technologist  is  considered  qual- 
ified to  perform,  with  little  or  no  direct  supervision, 
levels  of  laboratory  tests  from  the  simplest  to  the 
most  complex.  With  additional  education  or  ex- 
perience, medical  technologists  can  also  function 
as  educators,  researchers,  or  supervisors.  Med- 
ical technicians  and  technologists  hold  positions 
in  hospital,  private,  and  research  laboratories. 
Some  serve  as  sales  and  technical  representa- 
tives for  scientific  supply  and  equipment  com- 
panies; others  serve  in  government  positions. 

Both  the  associate  degree  and  bachelor's  de- 
gree programs  are  conducted  in  affiliation  with 
hospitals  in  the  Boston  area.  The  baccalaureate 
degree  is  accredited  by  the  Committee  of  Allied 
Health  Education  and  Accreditation  of  the  Amer- 
ican Medical  Association.  Upon  successful  com- 
pletion of  one  of  these  programs,  the  student 
receives  either  the  Associate  in  Science  or  Bach- 
elor of  Science  degree  and  is  eligible  to  take  a 
national  certification  examination  given  by  either 
the  National  Certification  Agency  for  Medical  Lab- 
oratory Personnel  or  the  Board  of  Registry  of  the 
American  Society  of  Clinical  Pathology. 

The  basic  courses  in  medical  laboratory  sci- 
ence and  basic  science  and  general  education 
courses  are  offered  evenings,  but  the  advanced 
medical  laboratory  science  courses  and  the  clin- 
ical experience  are  only  offered  full  time  during 
the  day. 

Prerequisite:  Satisfactory  completion  of  the 
Mathematics  Placement  Test  or  Introduction  to 
Mathematics  1  and  2  (MTH  4110,  MTH  4111).

Medical  Laboratory  Science — Hematology 


Bachelor  of  Science  Degree 


Hematology  is  a  specialty  within  medical  labora- 
tory science.  Hematology  technologists  may  be 
employed  in  hospitals  and  clinical  laboratones, 
where  they  perform  specific  laboratory  tests  that 
aid  in  the  diagnosis,  treatment,  and  follow-up  of 
infections,  anemias,  leukemias.  and  bleeding  dis- 
orders. The  modern  hematology  laboratory  is 
usually  well  equipped  with  electronic  instruments 
which  the  technologist  must  operate  and  main- 
tain. Additional  responsibilities  may  include  lab- 
oratory quality  control  and  associated  problem 
solving. 

The  requirements  for  categoncal  certification  in 
hematology  are  indicated  by  the  Board  of  Regis- 
try of  the  American  Society  of  Clinical  Pathologists 
and  the  National  Certification  Agency.

Radiologic  Technology 


Health  Professions  and  Sciences    83 


The  program  in  radiologic  technology  is  a  joint 
offering  of  the  University  and  several  area  hos- 
pitals. The  classroom  experiences  are  provided 
by  the  University,  and  the  laboratory  practicum  is 
conducted  at  an  assigned  affiliated  hospital.  The 
program  is  accredited  by  the  Council  on  Medical 
Education  of  the  American  Medical  Association. 

The  radiologic  technologist  is  a  respected 
member  of  the  allied  health  team  in  the  diagnostic 
and  therapeutic  environment  of  the  clinic  or  hos- 
pital, and  an  important  functionary  in  the  produc- 
tion, quality  control,  and  inspection  laboratories 
of  the  industrial  community.  Medically  related  re- 
sponsibilities demand  effective  rapport  with  in- 
ternists, surgeons,  pathologists,  nurses,  and 
laboratory  personnel,  while  industrial  competency 
requires  close  association  with  metallurgists,  pro- 
duction and  manufacturing  specialists,  engi- 
neers, and  scientists. 

Prerequisite:  Candidates  must  have  satisfac- 
torily passed  at  the  high  school  level  three  years 
of  math  {Algebra  1,  Algebra  2,  and  geometry), 
one  year  of  biology,  and  one  year  of  an  additional 
science  (chemistry  or  physics).  All  applicants 
must  satisfactorily  complete  the  Scholastic  Apti- 


tude Test  (SAT)  and  submit  one  letter  of  recom- 
mendation from  a  science  instructor.  In  addition, 
applicants  must  satisfy  general  University  re- 
quirements and  satisfactorily  complete  the 
University's  Mathematics  Placement  Test.  Can- 
didates successfully  meeting  the  above  require- 
ments will  be  scheduled  for  an  interview  with  the 
Radiologic  Technology  Program  Directors.

Therapeutic  Recreation  Services 


Health  Professions  and  Sciences    85 


Therapeutic  recreation,  which  is  concerned  with 
the  revitalization  of  the  mind,  spirit,  and  skills  of 
people  in  rehabilitation  facilities,  connmunity  set- 
tings, nursing  homes,  and  hospitals,  has 
emerged  as  an  important  part  of  the  team  con- 
cept in  human  services. 

The  certificate  verifies  that  the  criteria  set  by 
the  program's  consultant  have  been  met  and  that 
a  basic  level  of  competence  in  this  field  has  been 
attained.  At  present  there  is  no  official  state 
licensing  board  for  therapeutic  recreation  practi- 
tioners to  give  the  certificate  public  standing;  it  is 
recognized,  however,  by  the  Massachusetts  Rec- 
reation and  Park  Association  in  its  professional 
registration  plan. 

Students  in  the  certificate  and  associate  de- 
gree programs  may  go  on  to  pursue  a  Bachelor 
of  Science  degree  in  Health  Management  or  So- 
ciology in  University  College,  or  in  Therapeutic 
Recreation  in  the  day  undergraduate  program  of 
Northeastern's  Department  of  Health,  Sport,  and 
Leisure  Studies.

Law  Enforcement 


Director,  Law  Enforcement  Programs 
200  Churchill  Hall,  617-437-3324 

Aims 

Law  enforcement  programs  are  offered  to  help 
meet  the  needs  of  present  and  potential  practi- 
tioners in  the  fields  of  corrections,  law  enforce- 
ment, and  security  who  wish  to  have  the 
opportunity  to  acquire  a  liberal  education  as  well 
as  professional  competence,  or  to  gain  recogni- 
tion for  continuing  development  in  that  profession. 
Classes  are  tailored  to  suit  the  shifting  tours  of 
duty  of  many  of  its  students. 

Programs 

Requirements  for  each  program  are  outlined  on 
the  following  pages.  Upon  petition,  students  may 
be  permitted  to  substitute  other  courses  that  will 
more  adequately  serve  their  specific  objectives. 

Bachelor  of  Science  Degree  Program  Pro- 
grams leading  to  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree 
are  offered  in  correctional  practices,  law  enforce- 
ment, and  security.  Students  should  choose  their 
major  field  of  study  in  consultation  with  a  program 
adviser. 

Each  curriculum  provides  for  not  less  than  174 
quarter  hours  of  work,  including  at  least  75  quar- 
ter hours  of  advanced  work  in  a  major  field. 

Transfer  students  must  complete  at  least  45 
quarter  hours  of  academic  work  at  University  Col- 
lege immediately  preceding  graduation  in  order 
to  be  eligible  to  receive  a  degree. 

Associate  in  Science  Degree  Program     Pro 

grams  leading  to  the  associate  degree  are  of- 
fered for  those  who  wish  to  obtain  a  general 
background   in  correctional  practices,   law  en- 


forcement, or  security  and  who  may  later  wish  to 
pursue  a  baccalaureate  degree. 

Candidates  for  the  Associate  in  Science  de- 
gree must  complete  a  minimum  of  96  quarter 
hours  of  credit.  This  is  approximately  one  half  of 
the  requirements  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science  de- 
gree and  includes  at  least  48  quarter  hours  of 
work  in  a  major  field. 

Honors  Program  The  Honors  Program  is  de- 
signed to  provide  qualified  students  with  the  op- 
portunity to  achieve  broader  experience  within 
their  chosen  fields. 

In  general,  the  program  consists  of  indepen- 
dent study,  a  directed  reading  seminar,  indepen- 
dent research  projects,  and  special  seminars. 
Each  student's  program  is  arranged  in  consulta- 
tion with  the  Program  Director  and  the  Honors 
Faculty  Committee. 

The  Honors  Program  is  open  to  all  law  enforce- 
ment degree  candidates  in  University  College 
who  have  obtained  an  associate  degree  or  equiv- 
alent and  have  a  minimum  cumulative  grade  point 
average  of  3.0.  Students  who  are  eligible  for  this 
program  may  apply  for  admission  to  the  Director 
of  Law  Enforcement  Programs. 

For  course  descriptions,  see  page  151. 

Credit  for  Noncollegiate  Experience  (NCE) 

Corrections,  law  enforcement,  or  security  degree 
candidates  may  obtain  up  to  18  quarter  hours  of 
noncollegiate  experience  credit  (NCE)  for  knowl- 
edge acquired  in  a  nontraditional  manner  by  pe- 
titioning to  take  a  comprehensive  examination  in 
the  specific  subject  area.  Petitions  for  these  ex- 
aminations may  be  obtained  in  102  Churchill  Hall 
or  from  the  Director  of  Law  Enforcement  Pro- 
grams. 

NCE  cannot  be  used  to  fulfill  residence  require-

Course  Sequence 


Upon  completion  of  the  courses  required  for  en- 
rollment, the  student  should  elect  courses  from 
the  core  and  major  concentration  areas  to  fulfill 
the  requirements  for  the  Associate  in  Science  and 
the  Bachelor  of  Science  degrees. 

Degree  requirements  may  be  completed  at  the 
student's  own  pace.  A  total  of  32  courses  is  re- 
quired for  an  Associate  in  Science  degree,  which 
can  be  completed  in  as  little  time  as  three  years, 
or  nine  academic  quarters.  A  Bachelor  of  Science 
degree  can  be  completed  over  a  period  of  five 
years,  or  15  academic  quarters.  This  schedule 
averages  out  to  four  courses  per  academic  quar- 
ter. 

Intensive  Courses  Many  courses  are  frequently 
offered  as  single-quarter  intensives  during  the 
regular  school  year.  Intensive  courses  offer  stu- 
dents the  opportunity  to  achieve  their  objectives 
in  a  shorter  period  of  time.  Please  refer  to  the 
listing  of  courses  on  pages  183-190. 

Distribution  Requirements  In  order  to  satisfy 
the  distribution  requirements  in  any  law  enforce- 
ment program,  students  should  first  discuss  their 
programs  with  an  academic  adviser. 

English  courses  ENG  4110,  ENG  4111,  ENG 
4112  (9  quarter  hours),  must  be  taken  prior  to 
enrollment.  The  remaining  required  courses, 
amounting  to  33-36  quarter  hours,  should  be 
taken  from  the  distribution  of  the  basic  required, 
core  required,  and  major  concentration  courses 
as  listed  on  the  following  pages. 


Field  Work  Courses  Field  work  courses  (LEN 
4899)  provide  an  opportunity  for  students  to  apply 
their  academic  background  to  practical  problems 
in  the  areas  of  law  enforcement,  corrections,  and 
security. 

A  field  work  course  shall  have  the  following 
charactenstics: 

1 .  It  shall  be  a  one-quarter  course  worth  six  quar- 
ter hours  of  credit. 

2.  Only  degree  candidates  may  register. 

3.  Prior  to  registration,  each  student  should  con- 
sult with  the  Program  Director. 

4.  Each  student  shall  meet  with  the  departmental 
field  work  adviser  as  frequently  as  the  adviser 
feels  necessary,  but  in  any  case  no  fewer  than 
three  times  per  quarter:  once  to  formulate  the 
program  of  field  work  experience,  once  to  discuss 
ongoing  work,  and  once  to  transmit  and  discuss 
the  written  report. 

5.  Each  student  shall  spend  a  minimum  of  15 
hours  per  week  at  the  outside  agency  on  a  vol- 
unteer or  paid  basis. 

6.  The  student's  grade  shall  be  dependent  upon 
both  the  quality  of  the  experience  as  demon- 
strated in  the  final  report  and  the  discussions 
between  the  field  work  adviser  and  the  outside 
supervisor. 

7.  Each  student  shall  make  his  or  her  own  ar- 
rangements for  carrying  on  suitable  field  work  at 
a  departmentally  acceptable  agency  involving 
field  work  experience. 

8.  The  Program  Director  will  participate  in  a  stu- 
dent's placement  solely  in  an  advisory  capacity.

Aims 

In  providing  the  means  to  a  modern  liberal  edu- 
cation. University  College  has  the  main  objective 
of  stimulating  and  guiding  the  self-development 
of  the  student  in  three  main  areas:  first,  intellectual 
growth;  second,  the  development  of  a  sense  of 
values;  and  third,  preparation  for,  or  advance- 
ment in,  a  career. 

Intellectual  growth^the  development  of  the 
ability  to  think  independently  and  creatively — 
rests  upon  the  foundation  of  a  sound  general 
education.  Through  the  liberal  arts  curricula,  stu- 
dents are  guided  toward  an  appreciative  under- 
standing of  the  active  discovery  of  ideas  and 
methods  in  the  areas  of  humanities,  natural  sci- 
ence, and  social  science.  With  this  training,  the 
student  can  more  fully  realize  the  basic  values 
upon  which  civilization  rests  and  can  more  fully 
participate  in  the  intellectual,  moral,  and  material 
achievement  of  that  civilization. 

University  College  holds  that  there  is  no  incon- 
sistency between  a  truly  liberal  education  and 
preparation  for  a  vocation.  As  an  adventure  in 
intellectual  discovery,  a  liberal  education  leads  to 
the  broadening  and  intensification  of  interests  as 
the  student  becomes  aware  of  his  or  her  own 
mental  strengths  and  weaknesses.  This  discovery 
is  essential  for  making  more  intelligent  and  real- 
istic appraisals  of  self  and  career.  A  career  brings 
meaning  and  focus  to  the  educational  experi- 
ence. Education  presents  both  a  challenge  to 
accept  responsibility  and  an  opportunity  to  seek 
knowledge  and  skills. 


Bachelor's  Degree  in  Liberal  Studies 
(Pending  University  Approval) 

Consistent  with  its  aim  to  provide  students  with  a 
sound  liberal  education,  University  College  offers 
a  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  in  Liberal  Studies.  De- 
signed to  help  students  develop  communication, 
analytical,  and  research  skills  while  exploring  the 
great  ideas  of  the  ages  and  the  issues  fac- 
ing modern  times,  the  program's  courses  are 
grouped  in  four  areas: 

•  Communication  and  Critical  Thinking 

•  Cultural  Heritage 

•  Science,  Research,  and  Quantitative  Methods 

•  Contemporary  Studies 

The  courses  in  each  area  are  selected  to  pro- 
vide students  with  both  a  broad  knowledge  base 
and  a  depth  of  perception  resulting  from  viewing 
several  subjects  from  different  disciplinary  per- 
spectives. 

In  addition,  45  quarter  hours  of  elective  credits 
are  provided  to  allow  students  to  take  a  certificate 
program  and/or  select  individual  courses  in  ac- 
cordance with  their  personal  and  career  interests. 

Upon  approaching  completion  of  individual 
course  work  in  Cultural  Heritage  and  Contempo- 
rary Studies,  students  take  an  interdisciplinary 
seminar  in  each  area  to  integrate  their  learning 
experiences. 

A  complete  listing  of  Liberal  Studies  courses 
may  be  found  on  pages  118-119. 

Traditional  and  Career-Linked  Bachelor's 
Programs 

Both  Bachelor  of  Arts  and  Bachelor  of  Science 
degrees  are  offered  in  seven  traditional  disci- 
plines: art,  English,  history,  music,  political  sci- 
ence, psychology,  and  sociology-anthropology. 
One  of  the  distinguishing  characteristics  of  the 
Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  is  that  it  includes  a  lan- 
guage requirement,  whereas  the  Bachelor  of  Sci- 


Liberal  Arts     107 


ence  degree  does  not.  Distribution  requirements 
for  these  programs  are  listed  in  this  section. 
Bachelor  of  Science  degrees  more  directly  linked 
to  the  modern  workplace  are  offered  in  econom- 
ics and  in  technical  communications.  The  eco- 
nomics degree  includes  a  finance  certificate, 
while  the  technical  communications  degree  in- 
cludes a  professional  experience  program.  For 
details  see,  respectively,  pages  111  and  129. 

Professional  Concentrations 

Three  traditional  degree  programs — English,  po- 
litical science,  and  sociology-anthropology— offer 
professional  concentrations  designed  to  teach 
specialized  skills  and  help  create  new  career  op- 
tions for  liberal  arts  students.  Consult  the  follow- 
ing pages  for  individual  program  details.

Business  Administration  IVIinor 

Candidates  for  either  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  or 
Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in  a  liberal  arts  pro- 
gram area  have  the  option  of  completing  a  minor 
in  business  administration.  Students  who  wish  to 
earn  a  minor  in  business  administration  must  uti- 
lize some  of  the  open  electives  permitted  in  their 
degree  programs  for  this  purpose.  Students 
should  meet  with  an  academic  adviser  from  the 
Office  of  Academic  and  Student  Affairs  to  identify 
the  courses  required  for  a  minor  in  business.  Stu- 
dents earning  a  bachelor's  degree  in  a  liberal  arts 
area  are  permitted  to  accumulate  up  to  44  quarter 
hours  (25  percent  of  the  credits  toward  a  bach- 
elor's degree)  in  business  subjects.  Any  credits 
accumulated  beyond  this  limit  from  business 
courses  cannot  be  used  to  fulfill  the  graduation 
requirements  for  a  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  in 
a  liberal  arts  area. 

The  Associate  in  Science  Degree 

The  program  leading  to  the  associate  degree  is 
offered  for  those  desiring  a  general  cultural  back- 
ground in  liberal  arts,  but  who  do  not  wish  to 
pursue  a  major  field  of  concentration  for  the  bac- 
calaureate degree. 

Candidates  for  the  Associate  in  Science  de- 
gree in  Arts  and  Sciences  must  complete  a  min- 
imum of  96  quarter  hours  of  credit.  This  is 
approximately  one  half  of  the  requirements  (174 


quarter  hours)  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science  de- 
gree. 

To  provide  a  balanced  program  that  will 
achieve  the  established  objectives,  the  faculty 
has  set  a  minimum  credit  requirement  in  the  sev- 
eral areas  of  study  as  listed  under  each  major. 

Certificates  in  Ten  Areas 

Students  who  seek  specialized  skills  to  advance 
their  careers  may  choose  from  among  the  follow- 
ing ten  humanities  certificate  programs,  which 
may  be  taken  independently  or  in  conjunction 
with  degree  study: 

•  Advertising  and  Public  Relations 

•  American  Sign  Language  (ASL) 

•  Amehcan  Studies 

•  Gerontology 

•  Graphic  Design  and  Communication 

•  Public  Administration 

•  Software  Technical  Writing 

•  Song  Writing 

•  Speech  Communication 

•  Writing 

Except  for  ASL,  which  must  be  taken  in  resi- 
dence, each  certificate  program  permits  limited 
transfer  credit.  For  Information  about  all  University 
College  certificate  programs,  as  well  as  course 
listings  for  each  of  ttie  above,  see  pages  131- 
141.

quirements as  specified  under  the  individual  lib- 
eral arts  majors,  select  from  the  following:

(BIO.  .  .),  chemistry  (CHM.  .  .),  earth  science 
(ESC.  .  .),  mathematics  (MTH.  .  .),  physics 
(PHY.  .  .),  and  psychology  lab  courses  (PSY.  .  .).

108    Liberal  Arts 


English  Requirement  The  nine  quarter  hours 
of  required  English  (ENG  41 1 0,  ENG  4111,  ENG 
4112)  must  be  taken  prior  to  enrollnnent.  These 
courses  cannot  be  used  to  satisfy  distribution  re- 
quirements in  any  liberal  arts  course  of  study. 

Directed  Study 

Students  may  be  eligible  to  enroll  in  a  maximum 
of  two  directed  study  courses  in  a  liberal  arts 
major.  The  directed  study  is  intended  primarily  for 
the  senior  who  is  unable  to  take  a  course  needed 
for  graduation  because  of  circumstances  beyond 
his  or  her  control  (e.g.,  the  course  was  not  avail- 
able during  the  student's  tenure  in  University  Col- 
lege). Such  students  should  contact  the  program 
office  for  a  petition  to  establish  advanced  student 
status.  Please  refer  to  course  descriptions  for 
more  detailed  information. 

Honors  Program 

An  upperclass  honors  program  enables  superior 
students  to  pursue  studies  in  their  major  fields  in 
greater  depth  than  is  possible  in  the  regular 
courses. 

The  nature  of  the  program  is  determined  by  the 
academic  department  concerned.  Programs  may 
involve  special  research  projects  culminating  in 
honor  theses,  seminars,  reading  projects,  di- 
rected independent  study,  or  creative  work.  Flex- 
ibility is  the  keynote,  with  every  consideration 
given  to  the  individual  needs  and  requirements 
of  the  student.  Honors  advisers  are  chosen  from 
the  faculty  of  the  department  concerned. 

Students  who  have  earned  96  quarter  hours  of 
credit  toward  their  bachelor's  degree  and  who 
have  a  grade  point  average  of  3.0  or  better  are 
eligible  to  apply  to  the  Director  of  Liberal  Arts  in 
University  College  for  admission  to  the  program. 

Credit  for  Noncollegiate  Experience  (NCE) 

Liberal  arts  degree  candidates  may  obtain  up  to 
16  quarter  hours  of  noncollegiate  experience 
credit  (NCE)  in  all  liberal  arts  areas  except  graph- 
ics, technical  communications,  and  modern  lan- 
guages. 


Whenever  possible,  NCE  should  be  used  as  a 
substitute  for  specific  liberal  arts  courses  (for  ex- 
ample, substituting  NCE  in  PubJic  Speaking  for 
SPC  4101).  When  a  specific  course  is  deemed 
critical  to  the  academic  soundness  of  the  major, 
a  student  may  be  asked  to  take  the  course  but 
may,  in  addition,  receive  NCE  credit  in  the  subject 
area  in  which  he  or  she  has  acquired  special 
knowledge. 

To  apply  for  NCE  credit,  a  student  must  file  a 
petition  listing  the  relevant  courses,  reasons  for 
which  credit  should  be  received,  and  if  appro- 
priate, attaching  any  materials  that  might  serve 
as  documentation. 

Notification  of  acceptance  or  rejection  of  the 
petition  will  be  issued  by  the  Office  of  Academic 
and  Student  Affairs,  as  directed  by  the  Director 
of  Liberal  Arts,  with  the  advice  of  the  concerned 
departmental  consultant(s).  The  latter  will  deter- 
mine whether  the  petitioner's  NCE  is  equivalent 
to  the  course  listings  as  claimed.  Criteria  for  such 
evaluation  may  or  may  not  include  a  formal  ex- 
amination, an  interview,  departmental  consulta- 
tion, or  a  request  for  additional  documentation. 

If  positive  action  is  taken  on  the  petition,  the 
resulting  NCE  credits  may  be  applied  toward  a 
bachelor's  degree.  However,  students  should  be 
aware  of  certain  constraints.  To  have  NCE  credit 
counted  to  qualify  for  a  given  June  graduation, 
the  petition  must  be  filed  at  least  six  months  prior 
to  the  commencement  date.  NCE  cannot  be  used 
to  fulfill  residence  requirements.  NCE  credit  can- 
not be  given  for  courses  that  can  be  accredited 
through  the  CLEP  testing  program  at  the  time  of 
the  petition.  Grades  will  not  be  assigned  to  NCE 
credits.  It  is  possible  that  NCE  credit  may  be 
applicable  toward  a  degree  in  University  College 
only. 

Field  Work  Courses 

To  provide  the  opportunity  for  students  to  apply 
their  academic  background  to  practical  prob- 
lems, several  departments  have  introduced 
courses  in  their  curricula  entitled  "Field  Work 
In.  .  .  ."  Field  Work  guidelines  are  available  in  204 
Churchill  Hall.

Acceptance  of  University  College  Credits 

by  Northeastern's  Basic  College  of  Arts 

and  Sciences 

The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  one  of  the 
basic  (day)  colleges  of  Northeastern  University, 
permits  its  students  to  enroll  for  credit  in  courses 
in  University  College  when  they  are  pertinent  to 
the  student's  program  and  have  been  approved 
by  the  Dean  of  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences. 
The  credits  for  such  courses  may  be  applied  to 
the  total  number  of  credits  needed  for  graduation, 
to  satisfy  distribution  requirements,  and/or  to  fulfill 
language  and  major  deficiencies. 

Credits  from  University  College,  as  well  as 
those  from  other  accredited  institutions,  may  not 
be  applied  to  the  quality  point  average  of  stu- 
dents in  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  except 
when  such  credits  are  from  courses  taken  as 
substitutes  for  those  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 
courses  failed  by  students.  In  such  instances, 
students  must  receive  a  grade  of  C  or  better  in 
the  University  College  courses  and  then  only  2.0 
quality  points  are  applied  to  the  student's  record 
for  each  course.  Courses  taken  in  University  Col- 
lege that  are  not  offered  in  the  College  of  Arts 
and  Sciences  may  be  transferred  with  the  full 
grade  upon  approval  of  the  major  department  as 
well  as  the  Dean  of  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sci- 
ences.

Many  persons  who  enroll  in  University  College 
are  seeking  specific,  job-related  skills  rather  than 
the  traditional  course  sequence  of  a  degree  pro- 
grann.  To  help  meet  such  educational  needs,  Uni- 
versity College  offers  a  variety  of  certificate 
programs  in  business,  law  enforcement,  and  lib- 
eral arts. 

Certificate  programs  in  University  College  are 
designed  for: 

•  students  planning  to  complete  an  associate  de- 
gree but  who  first  want  to  acquire  the  market- 
able skills  offered  in  certificate  programs 

•  individuals  seeking  an  intensive  course  of  study 
in  a  discipline  but  who  do  not  wish  to  acquire 
a  degree 

•  individuals  already  holding  a  degree  but  who 
wish  to  acquire  a  specialized  body  of  knowl- 
edge for  career  change  or  professional  devel- 
opment. 

All  certificate  programs,  except  American  Sign 
Language,  are  designed  so  that  transfer  into  a 
related  degree  program  is  possible.  In  addition, 
a  limited  amount  of  transfer  credit  for  introductory 
courses  taken  at  another  college  or  university 
may  be  applied  toward  fulfilling  the  requirements 
for  a  certificate.  Transfer  students  who  have  al- 
ready completed  upper-level  courses  that  dupli- 
cate those  required  for  a  particular  certificate  may 
complete  the  certificate  in  question  by  substitut- 
ing other  upper-level  courses  in  the  same  or  a 
related  discipline.  The  number  of  transfer  credits 
permitted  varies  by  certificate.  Therefore,  please 
check  the  curriculum  for  the  individual  certificate 
in  which  you  are  interested. 

An  individual  may  be  awarded  only  two  certif- 
icates. These  certificates  may  be  in  related  or 
totally  distinct  subject  areas.  Students  who 
choose  to  complete  a  second  certificate  in  a  sub- 
ject area  that  is  related  to  their  first  certificate  will 
often  find  that  the  two  certificate  programs  have 
certain  courses  in  common.  In  no  instance,  how- 
ever, will  a  second  certificate  be  awarded  if  more 
than  50  percent  of  the  course  work  applicable  to 
that  certificate  has  already  been  used  to  fulfill  the 
requirements  for  a  first  certificate. 

Students  who  are  already  pursuing  an  associ- 
ate or  bachelor's  degree  in  a  specialized  aca- 
demic area  should  not  complete  a  certificate 


program  in  the  same  area.  Instead,  degree  stu- 
dents are  encouraged  to  use  a  certificate  pro- 
gram to  acquire  job-related  skills  in  an  area  not 
covered  in  depth  by  the  requirements  of  their 
major. 

On  occasion,  students  may  have  good  reasons 
for  requesting  permission  to  replace  a  required 
course  in  a  certificate  program  with  a  substitute 
course.  Permission  to  substitute  a  course  must 
be  granted  by  the  appropriate  program  office. 
Students  should  submit  a  completed  Petition  for 
Course  Substitution  and  Waivers  to  the  appropri- 
ate program  office.  Petitions  are  available  in  102 
Churchill  Hall  on  the  Boston  campus  and  at  all 
branch  campus  offices. 

All  course  credits  used  to  fulfill  the  require- 
ments for  a  certificate  program  must  reflect  aca- 
demic work  completed  within  five  years  prior  to 
the  date  on  which  the  certificate  is  awarded. 

Upon  completion  of  a  certificate  program,  stu- 
dents must  submit  a  petition  requesting  a  certifi- 
cate. Petitions  are  available  in  102  Churchill  Hall 
or  at  the  administrative  offices  at  any  branch  cam- 
pus. For  further  information  concerning  a  partic- 
ular certificate  program,  please  call  the  telephone 
number  listed  with  that  program.

142    Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program 


Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program 


Program  Goals 


Faculty  and  Resources 


Students  in  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Pro- 
gram are  considered  regular  students  and  are 
degree  candidates  with  an  undeclared  major.  The 
Alternative  Freshman-Year  Program  is  specifically 
designed  to  help  students  strengthen  their  basic 
academic  skills  in  writing  as  well  as  mathematics. 
While  helping  them  gain  confidence  in  their  ability 
to  do  college-level  work,  the  program  also  offers 
them  an  opportunity  to  consider  several  different 
areas  of  study  before  committing  themselves  to 
a  specific  major.  Through  the  combination  of  a 
carefully  prescribed  curriculum  and  the  attention 
of  professional  counselors,  each  student  is 
helped  to  establish  a  program  suited  to  his  or  her 
individual  needs.  These  same  counselors  are  nor- 
mally available  on  a  continuing  basis  throughout 
the  student's  entire  freshman  year. 


Program  Structure 


Students  in  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year  Pro- 
gram begin  with  10-14  quarter  hours  of  credit  in 
their  first  academic  quarter.  In  their  second  and 
third  quarters,  students  accelerate  their  sched- 
ules of  course  work  to  take  14-16  and  16-17 
quarter  hours  of  credit  respectively.  Students  in 
the  health  sciences  track  complete  the  Alternative 
Freshman-Year  Program  with  a  fourth  quarter  of 
17  quarter  hours  of  credit. 

After  completing  the  prescribed  Alternative 
Freshman-Year  Program  and  achieving  both  a 
cumulative  quality-point  average  of  1.400  or  bet- 
ter and  specific  program  requirements  as  noted, 
students  may  generally  continue  their  degree 
programs  within  University  College,  or  transfer, 
with  sophomore  status,  to  any  program  in  the 
College  of  Business  Administration  or  the  College 
of  Criminal  Justice,  as  well  as  certain  nonscience 
programs  in  the  Boston-Bouve  College  of  Human 
Development  Professions  and  the  College  of  Arts 
and  Sciences.  In  addition  to  the  cumulative  qual- 
ity-point average  of  1.400  or  better,  the  College 
of  Business  Administration  requires  a  1.800  av- 
erage in  five  key  courses,  namely,  MTH  1113, 
ENG  4013,  ENG  4014,  ECN  4601 ,  and  MGT41 10. 
Additional  program  requirements  for  students  de- 
siring to  be  admitted  to  sophomore  status  in  the 
College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  Profes- 
sions are  listed  in  the  Student  Handbook  for  Basic 
Colleges. 


The  University  has  carefully  selected  for  the  Al- 
ternative Freshman-Year  Program  faculty  mem- 
bers who  are  aware  of  individual  student  goals 
as  well  as  the  needs  of  students  working  to  adjust 
to  a  college  program.  Faculty  and  students  meet 
in  small  classes  of  not  more  than  25  students. 

As  members  of  the  program,  students  are  con- 
sidered regular  Northeastern  University  day  stu- 
dents even  though  they  have  unique  schedules 
and  a  distinctively  tailored  curriculum.  Therefore, 
they  generally  have  access  to  all  counseling  ser- 
vices, physical  education  facilities,  dormitory  ar- 
rangements, and  extracurricular  programs  at  the 
University's  main  campus  in  Boston. 

Alternative  Freshman-Year  students  are  en- 
couraged to  make  extensive  use  of  the  up-to-date 
programmed  learning  resources  available  for 
self-instruction  through  Northeastern's  Learning 
Resources  Center  on  the  Boston  campus.  For 
additional  assistance,  Alternative  Freshmen  are 
also  frequently  referred  to  the  Academic  Assis- 
tance Center  and/or  the  Math/Writing  Center  on 
the  Boston  campus.  A  third  and  very  important 
resource,  the  Counseling  and  Testing  Center,  is 
also  available  to  students  on  both  the  Boston  and 
Burlington  campuses  for  personal  and  academic 
counseling,  as  well  as  for  vocational  testing  and 
counseling. 


Tuition  and  Fees 


Tuition  and  fees  for  the  Alternative  Freshman-Year 
Program  are  the  same  as  for  students  in  the  Basic 
Colleges.  Payment  of  the  standard  tuition  during 
the  first  three  academic  quarters  of  residence 
entitles  students  to  48  credit  hours  of  instruction. 
Thus,  those  who  take  the  40  programmed  credits 
are  entitled  to  an  eight-quarter-hour  tuition  ad- 
justment at  the  regular  freshman  rate.

Computer  Systems  Specialist  Program 


The  Program 


The  Computer  Systems  Specialist  Program  is  de- 
signed to  offer  students  an  opportunity  to  acquire 
training  as  computer  systems  specialists.  In- 
tended for  students  who  are  interested  in  entry- 
level  programming  positions  in  business  and  in- 
dustry, the  program  is  structured  to  help  meet  the 
career  goals  of  individuals  who  presently  have 
minimal  or  no  academic  or  work-related  back- 
ground in  computer  programming.  Students  who 
successfully  complete  the  program  will  receive  a 
Certificate  in  Programming. 

Admission  College  Board  Examinations  are  not 
required  for  admission.  For  purposes  of  evalua- 
tion for  admission,  however,  a  computer-pro- 
grammer aptitude  test  will  be  administered  to 
applicants  who  successfully  complete  the  initial 
screening  process.  Enrollment  is  limited.  This 
program  will  be  offered  only  if  a  sufficient  number 
of  qualified  candidates  applies. 

Days,  Dates,  Times,  and  Places  The  program 
is  scheduled  twice  during  the  academic  year,  in 
the  fall  and  spring  quarters.  Classes  are  sched- 
uled for  30  weekends:  on  Fridays,  from  6  to  10 
p.m.,  and  all  day  Saturday,  from  9  a.m.  to  5:30 
p.m.  Sections  offered  alternate  among  the  Bos- 
ton, Burlington,  and  Dedham  campuses. 

Course  Content    Courses  include  the  following: 


Academic  Credit  and  Certification  Upon  sat- 
isfactory completion  of  the  program,  students  will 
have  accumulated  45  quarter  hours  of  academic 
credit.  These  credits  represent  26  percent  of  the 
credits  necessary  for  a  bachelor's  degree.  Stu- 
dents satisfactorily  completing  the  program  will 
also  receive  a  Certificate  in  Programming. 

Placement  Assistance 

Although  job  placement  is  not  guaranteed,  most 
students  who  successfully  complete  the  program 
find  suitable  employment.  Specific  placement 
services  include  individual  counseling;  job- 
search  seminars  on  career  opportunities,  self- 
assessment,  resume  preparation,  and  interview- 
ing skills;  and  resume  referrals  to  employers.

Delivery  of  Services 

The  University  assumes  no  liability,  and  hereby  expressly  negates  the  same,  for  failure  to  provide  or  delay  in 
providing  educational  or  related  services  or  facilities  or  for  any  other  failure  or  delay  in  performance  arising  out 
of  or  due  to  causes  beyond  the  reasonable  control  of  the  University,  w/hich  causes  include,  without  limitation, 
power  failure,  fire,  strikes  by  University  employees  or  others,  damage  by  the  elements  and  acts  of  public 
authorities.  The  University  will,  however,  exert  reasonable  efforts,  when  in  its  judgment  it  is  appropriate  to  do  so, 
to  provide  comparable  or  substantially  equivalent  services,  facilities  or  performance,  but  its  inability  or  failure  to 
do  so  shall  not  subject  it  to  liability. 

The  Northeastern  University  catalog  contains  current  information  regarding  the  University  calendar,  admis- 
sions, degree  requirements,  fees,  and  regulations,  and  such  information  is  not  intended  to  be  and  should  not  be 
relied  upon  as  a  statement  of  the  University's  contractual  undertakings. 

Northeastern  University  reserves  the  right  in  its  sole  judgment  to  promulgate  and  change  rules  and  regulations 
and  to  make  changes  of  any  nature  in  its  program,  calendar,  admissions  policies,  procedures  and  standards, 
degree  requirements,  fees,  and  academic  schedule  whenever  it  is  deemed  necessary  or  desirable,  including, 
without  limitation,  changes  in  course  content,  the  rescheduling  of  classes,  cancelling  of  scheduled  classes  and 
other  academic  activities  and  requiring  or  affording  alternatives  for  scheduled  classes  or  other  academic 
activities,  in  any  such  case  giving  such  notice  as  is  reasonably  practicable  under  the  circumstances. 
Northeastern  will  do  its  best  to  make  available  to  you  the  finest  education,  the  most  stimulating  atmosphere  and 
the  most  congenial  conditions  it  can  provide.  But  the  quality  and  the  rate  of  progress  of  your  academic  career  is 
in  large  measure  dependent  upon  your  own  abilities,  commitment,  and  effort.  This  is  equally  true  with  respect  to 
professional  advancement  upon  completion  of  the  degree  or  program  in  which  you  are  enrolled.  The  University 
cannot  guarantee  that  you  will  obtain  or  succeed  at  any  particular  job;  that  will  depend  upon  your  own  skills, 
achievement,  presentation,  and  other  factors  such  as  market  conditions  at  that  time.  Similarly  in  many 
professions  and  occupations  there  are  increasing  requirements  imposed  by  federal  and  state  statutes  and 
regulatory  agencies  for  certification  or  entry  into  a  particular  field.  These  may  change  during  the  period  of  time 
when  you  are  at  Northeastern  and  they  may  vary  from  state  to  state  and  from  country  to  country.  While  the 
University  stands  ready  to  help  you  find  out  about  these  requirements  and  changes,  it  is  your  responsibility  to 
initiate  the  inquiry  because  the  University  has  no  other  way  of  knowing  what  your  expectations  and  understand- 
ings are. 

In  brief,  the  University  is  there  to  offer  you  educational  opportunities  and  choices  and  to  assist  you  in  finding  the 
direction  in  which  you  want  to  steer  your  educational  experience.  But  you  are  a  partner  in  this  venture  with  an 
obligation  and  responsibility  to  yourself.

College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 


The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  offers  students  programs  leading  to  two  degrees  in  most  majors:  the  Bachelor 
of  Arts  and  the  Bachelor  of  Science.  Degree  requirements  for  the  options  in  each  major  are  listed  on  the 
following  pages.  In  addition  to  these  requirements  specified  by  the  major  department,  the  college  has  estab- 
lished certain  minimum  graduation  requirements  for  its  students.  They  are  as  follows: 

Quantitative:  Candidates  for  either  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  or  Bachelor  of  Science  degree  who  entered  in  or 

after  the  fall  quarter  of  1 974  must  successfully  complete  1 76  quarter  hours  of  credit,  of  which  32  quarter 

hours  may  be  taken  outside  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences.  In  addition,  only  four  quarter  hours  of 

Physical  Education  and  no  ROTC  credits  may  be  used  to  meet  this  requirement. 

Residency:  Candidates  must  complete  either  75  percent  of  the  degree  credit  or  the  last  three  full  quarters  (a 

minimum  of  twelve  full  courses)  at  Northeastern. 

Qualitative:  Candidates  must  achieve  a  minimum  cumulative  average  of  2.0  (grade  of  C). 

Other  Degree  Requirements 

Modern  Foreign  Language 
All  candidates  for  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  must  attain  the  level  of  proficiency  in  a  modern  language 
indicated  by  either  a  passing  grade  at  the  intermediate  level  of  a  college  language  course  or  by  meeting  a 
comparable  criterion  approved  by  the  Modern  Languages  Department.  Please  note  American  Sign  Language 
does  not  fulfill  this  requirement. 
A  conditional  exemption  from  this  requirement  may  be  granted  to: 

1)  Students  who  earned  an  average  grade  of  C  or  better  in  a  full,  four-year  language  sequence  in 
secondary  school  or 

2)  Students  who  earned  an  average  grade  of  A  in  a  three-year  language  sequence  in  secondary  school. 

A  conditional  exemption  must  be  confirmed  by  taking  a  proficiency  examination  during  the  student's  first 
quarter  at  the  University.  A  sufficiently  high  score  will  verify  the  exemption;  otherwise  the  student  will  be  advised 
to  enroll  in  an  appropriate  language  course  in  the  following  quarter 
An  absolute  exemption  will  be  granted  to  students: 

1)  For  whom  English  is  a  foreign  language; 

2)  Who  receive  a  score  of  550  or  better  in  a  CEEB  language  achievement  examination. 

Students  who  have  not  met  the  foreign  language  requirement  at  the  time  of  entrance  will  register  for  courses 
appropriate  to  the  scope  and  level  of  prior  study  The  normal  sequence  for  students  with  no  prior  preparation  is 
two  quarters  of  elementary-level  language  and  two  quarters  of  intermediate-level  language.  The  Modern 
Languages  Department  will  determine  an  appropriate  entry  point  at  which  students  who  have  partial  language 
preparation  may  begin  completing  the  requiement. 

The  following  requirements  are  effective  for  all  students  who  entered  prior  to  the  Fall  of  1 984  and  upperclass 
transfer  students  who  entered  prior  to  the  Fall  of  1985: 

The  Distribution  Requirement:  The  Distribution  Requirement  is  required  of  Bachelor  of  Arts  candidates  in  all 
programs.  Very  generally,  it  involves  taking  ten  courses  (or  forty  quarter  hours)  of  courses  outside  of  the 
major  area.  For  full  details  on  this  requirement,  consult  the  Arts  and  Sciences  Student  Guidebook,  which  is 
available  in  the  Dean's  Office,  400  Meserve  Hall. 

Freshman  English:  All  degree  candidates  must  successfully  complete  one  or  two  quarters  of  Freshman 
Composition  (depending  on  test  placement  results)  and  one  quarter  of  Introduction  to  Literature. 

The  following  requirements  are  effective  for  all  freshmen  who  entered  in  or  after  the  Fall  of  1984  and  all  other 

students  who  enter  in  the  Fall  of  1 985  or  after: 

The  Core  Curriculum:  This  requirement  replaces  the  former  Freshman  English  and  Distribution  described 
above.  Depending  upon  whether  a  student  is  a  candidate  for  a  Bachelor  of  Arts  or  a  Bachelor  of  Science,  a 
certain  number  of  courses  must  be  taken  in  each  of  the  following  categories. 

I)  Basic  Skills  (Quantitative  and  Communicative) 

II)  Methods  of  Inquiry 

III)  The  Western  Cultural  Heritage 

IV)  Alternative  Cultures  and  Societies

Minor  in  African-American 
Studies 


A  major  in  African-American  Studies  offers  background  for  a  wide  range  of 
professions  calling  for  understanding  of  intergroup  relations  and  the  minority 
experience.  Students  may  go  on  to  graduate  study  in  such  areas  as  social  work, 
sociology  education,  law,  business,  history,  or  the  humanities. 
Students  majoring  in  African-American  Studies  may  earn  either  the  Bachelor  of 
Arts  (B.A.)  or  Bachelor  of  Science  (B.S.)  degree.  All  majors  are  required  to  take  the 
following  set  of  courses.

Faculty  advisers  work  with  students  to  help  them  select  one  or  more  "concentra- 
tion clusters"  (as  described  below)  in  African-American  Studies  to  fulfill  the 
distribution  requirements  for  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  or  the  career-package 
program  for  the  Bachelor  of  Science  degree. 

A  minor  in  African-American  Studies  is  designed  to  meet  the  needs  of  students 
who  major  in  other  areas  but  have  special  interest  in  African-American  Studies.  To 
qualify  for  a  minor,  a  student  must  earn  28  quarter-hour  credits  in  the  field,  1 2  of 
which  must  be  from  the  set  of  courses  required  for  majors.  The  remaining  credits 
will  be  a  concentration  cluster  arranged  in  consultation  with  a  student's  faculty 
adviser 

A  concentration  cluster  is  a  set  of  four  courses  that  focuses  on  a  given  aspect  of 
African-American  Studies.  A  cluster  might  focus  on  sociology-psychology  history, 
humanities,  human  service,  research,  or  other  areas  related  to  the  student's 
educational  or  career  needs.  Concentration  clusters  are  arranged  in  consulta- 
tions between  the  student  and  a  faculty  adviser

SPECIAL  NOTE 

Classes  at  Northeastern  University  are  scheduled  in  different  modules. 

In  assessing  quarter  weights  for  courses,  the  following  statement  applies:  One  quarter-hour  of  credit  is  equal 
to  50  minutes  of  instruction  per  weel<,  plus  two  hours  of  preparation. 

The  Scheduling  Office  (126  HA)  maintains  all  quarter-hour  weights  for  courses.  In  the  event  of  error  in  any 
publication,  the  academic  record  will  reflect  the  correct  quarter  hours  applicable  to  any  degree  requirement. 

Some  course  titles  may  change,  but  the  course  number  remains  the  same.  Be  sure  you  do  not  register  for 
a  course  you  may  have  already  taken.

*  Graded  pass/fail  and  therefore  not  included  in  the  student's  quality-point  average. 
t  Freshmen  in  the  College  of  Criminal  Justice  are  not  required  to  take  a  mathematics  course  in  the  fresh- 
man year.  They  canceled,  however,  to  take  MTH1000  or  MTH1010  to  prepare  themselves  for  Fundamen- 
tals of  Mathematics*  MTH1 106  as  upperclassmen. 

$  Although  the  Colleges  of  Engineering  and  Computer  Science  do  not  allow  MTH1000  or  MTH1010  to  be 
taken  for  academic  credit,  they  do  offer  a  special  course  sequence  in  college  calculus  with  algebra 
and  trigonometry  (MTH1120  and  MTH1121)  for  engineering  freshmen  judged  to  have  deficiencies  in 
mathematics.  The  courses  involve  extra  hours  of  work  but  cover  the  same  material  as  the  regular  fresh- 
man calculus  sequence  in  the  College  of  Engineering. 

§  Although  the  College  of  Pharmacy  and  Allied  Health  professions  does  allow  ENG1013  to  appear  on  the 
permanent  record,  it  will  only  allow  ENG1014  for  credit.  Students  completing  the  ENG1013-ENG1014 
sequence  will  have  to  make  up  the  four-credit  elective  which  was  displaced  by  ENG1013.

Biology 

For  specific  information  about  terms  during  which  courses  are  offered,  students  should  inquire  at  the  main  office 
of  the  Biology  Department,  403  Richards  Hall.  This  is  especially  the  case  for  students  wishing  to  carry  a  minor  in 
biology,  since  some  courses  acceptable  only  for  a  minor  do  not  appear  in  the  quarterly  Elective  Course  Selection 
booklets.  Students  should  note  that  courses  are  presented  by  category  and  are  not  listed  in  a  single  numerical 
sequence. 

Students  should  be  aware  that  two  (or  more)  courses  with  substantially  the  same  content  may  not  be  counted 
toward  quantitative  graduation  requirements.  Some  instances  of  overlap  between  biology  courses  are  noted  in 
the  individual  course  descriptions  below.  However,  in  addition,  certain  combinations  of  courses  (e.g.,  BIO 
1150-1151  and  BIO  1253,  -54,  -55)  may  cover  essentially  the  same  material,  and  certain  courses  in  other 
departments  of  the  University  may  duplicate  certain  biology  courses.  If  a  student  is  not  sure  whether  particular 
courses  overlap,  the  student  should  seek  advice  from  departmental  advisers  or  the  Arts  and  Sciences  Dean's 
Office.

introduction  to  basic  oral  expression,  listening  com- 
prehension, and  elementary  reading  and  writing.  The

LNF  1 1 02  Elementary  French  II  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  LNF1101) 

This  course's  intent  is  to  continue  and  broaden  begin- 
ners' exposure  to  the  "four  skills"-oral  comprehen- 
sion, speaking,  reading,  and  writing  French— so  that 
the  linguistic  tools  needed  to  understand  and  function 
in  foreign  contexts-at  home,  abroad,  and  in  the  world 
of  literature  and  film— may  be  acquired. 

LNF  1 1 03  Intermediate  French  I  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  LNF  1 102  or  equiv.) 

This  course,  for  students  who  wish  to  further  their 
audio-lingual  skills  and  improve  their  reading  and 
writing,  combines  a  review  and  continued  study  of 
grammar  essentials  with  oral,  writing,  and  language 
laboratory  practice.  Varied  readings  include  jour- 
nalistic, cultural,  and  modern  literary  texts.  Classes 
are  conducted  in  French  as  much  as  possible  so  that 
students  may  exercise  their  new  skills. 

LNF  1 1 04  Intermediate  French  II  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  LNF  1103) 

This  course  uses  the  fundamentals  of  French  to 
promote  effective  self-expression  through  speaking 
and  writing  and  to  explore  the  idiomatic  aspects  of  the 
language.  Through  progressive  class  discussions  and 
oral  and  written  commentaries,  students  analyze  a 
contemporary  French  novel  or  a  French  cultural  reader, 
screenplay  or  collection  of  short  stories.  The  course 
strives,  first,  to  help  students  read  and  comprehend 
modern  French  writing  with  confidence,  and  to  be 
able  to  talk  and  write  about  it  in  good  French;  and 
second,  to  provide  them  the  opportunity  to  prepare  for 
advancement  to  courses  beyond  the  intermediate 
level.

4Q.H. 

(Prereq.  LNF  1 102  or  equiv) 

This  course  is  designed  for  those  students  who  wish 
to  develop  their  reading  skills,  without  regard  to  other 
aspects  of  the  language  such  as  speaking  or  writing. 
To  this  end,  the  grammar  necessary  for  reading  is 
stressed,  together  with  vocabulary  building.  Scientific 
and  nonscientific  texts  are  read.  This  course  may  also 
provide  assistance  to  students,  graduate  and  under- 
graduate, who  need  to  pass  a  reading  examination  to 
fulfill  specific  degree  requirements.  However,  It  should 
be  made  clear  that  this  course  is  not  a  substitute  for

sions, compositions,  and  an  advanced  review  of  fun- 
damentals. Grammar  work  focuses  on  the  students' 
particular  needs  as  well  as  the  nuances  of  the 
language.  Varied  readings  in  a  range  of  styles-popular 
to  literary-provide  insight  into  French  life  and  culture.

Emphasis  is  on  further  vocabulary  building  and 
mastery  of  fine  points  of  grammar  through  written 
composition,  prepared  oral  reports,  and  reading  and 
discussion  of  articles  from  current  periodicals.  Special 
attention  is  given  to  the  latest  trends  in  spoken  French, 
the  study  of  idioms  and  proverbs,  as  well  as  selected 
examples  of  "argot"  (slang).

project  throughout  the  course,  to  be  completed  at  the 
end  of  the  quarter— such  as  planning  and  writing  an 
original  French  magazine  with  one  article  to  be  sub- 
mitted each  week  of  the  term. 

LNF  1225  Introduction  to  the  French-Speaking 
World  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  LNF  1 104  or  equiv) 

This  course  offers  a  cultural  introduction  to  the  French- 
speaking  world  through  the  study  of  various  reading 
selections  in  the  textbook  Le  Monde  Franqais.  These 
selections,  which  stress  vocabulary  building  and 
proper  usage  of  a  wide  variety  of  grammatical  forms, 
deal  with  the  traditional  backgrounds  and  aspects,  as 
well  as  the  contemporary  and  "pop"  aspects,  of  the 
cultural  heritage  of  the  world's  French  speakers.  France 
will  be  the  main,  but  not  the  exclusive,  focus  of  this 
course.

skills;  and  to  apply  these  new  skills  to  a  greater 
understanding  and  appreciation  of  major  French  con- 
tributions to  Western  culture.  Group  discussions  are

are  traced  from  the  beginnings  of  French  literature  to

LNF  1 550  Introduction  to  Film  Analysis  .4  Q.H. 

The  course's  major  goal  is  the  cultivation  of  critical 
skills  in  analyzing  the  film  medium,  enabling  students 
to  spot  and  articulate  ways  in  which  film  shapes  their 
experience.  The  course  will  be  presented  in  three 
units:  Film  Form,  Narrative  Form,  and  Film  Style.  Form, 
and  its  most  prevalent  manifestation,  narrative  form, 
can  be  said  to  be  the  way  in  which  the  parts  of  a  film 
are  related  to  one  another  to  create  a  whole.  Style, 
including  mise-en-scene,  cinematography  editing, 
and  sound,  will  be  studied  in  relation  to  audience 
expectations  and  the  constitutive  role  of  film  form.  The 
course  will  be  organized  around  weekly  film  screen- 
ings and  individual  study  of  films  put  on  reserve  in  the 
Video  section  of  the  Learning  Resource  Center  of 
Dodge  Library 

LNF  1 551  Introduction  to  Rim  Theory  4  Q.H. 

The  purpose  of  the  course  is  to  help  students  become 
aware  of  the  many  factors  involved  in  the  film's  com- 
munication of  a  "message."  The  methodology  of  the 
course  will  be  based  on  "semiotics,"  which  seeks  to 
reveal  the  meaning  of  film  through  close  analysis  of 
the  text.  By  integrating  historical  and  psychoanalytic 
approaches  to  the  semiotic  model,  the  course  will 
also  stress  the  relativity  of  interpretative  results. 
Through  a  variety  of  readings,  students  will  be  exposed 
to  a  number  of  views  that  will  equip  them  to  be  open 
minded  about  deciding  what  a  film  means.  Weekly  film 
screenings  will  contrast  a  Hollywood  film  with  a 
European  film  for  the  purpose  of  analysis. 

LNF  1 560  nim  and  Psychoanalysis  4  Q.H. 

This  course  will  explore  the  nature  and  possibilities  of 


the  psychoanalytic  interpretation  of  film.  The  course 
will  demonstrate  that  such  an  approach  offers  an 
additional  dimension  to  the  analysis  of  a  work  of  art. 
The  principal  focus  will  be  on  elements  in  the  work 
that  are  derivative  of  unconscious  processes.  Thus, 
fantasies,  dreams,  symbolism,  and  imagery  will  be 
given  special  attention.  Material  in  the  works  studied 
that  relates  to  neurotic  conflicts,  character  structure 
and  formation,  interpersonal  relationships  and  distor- 
tions in  psychological  development  will  be  brought 
into  the  discussion.  Weekly  film  screenings  will  be 
accompanied  by  lectures  and  discussions;  each 
student  will  select  one  film  (placed  on  reserve  in  the 
Learning  Resources  Center  of  Dodge  Library)  for  an 
in-depth  study  on  a  topic  of  his  or  her  choice.

serve  as  a  means  to  complete  major  or  minor  require- 
ments in  certain  situations.  Directed  Studies  will  not

PHL  1 1 00  Introduction  to  Philosophy  4  Q.H. 

The  course  seeks  to  introduce  students  to  philosophy 
by  acquainting  them  with  the  theories  and  arguments 
of  classical  and  contemporary  philosophers  and  by 
teaching  the  skills  of  constructing  and  analyzing  argu- 
ments. Students  both  learn  about  and  engage  in 
philosophical  inquiry.  While  not  all  sections  treat  the 
same  issues,  typical  areas  covered  include  questions 
about  the  basis  of  morality,  free  will  versus  determin- 
ism, the  existence  of  God,  the  problem  of  suffering, 
and  the  nature  of  knowledge.  (II) 

PHL  11 1 0  Introduction  to  Religion  4  Q.H. 

This  course  seeks  to  identify  and  appraise  different 
ways  of  being  religious:  primitive,  mystical,  dogmatic, 
and  ritual.  Emphasis  is  placed  upon  appreciating  the 
unique  standpoint  that  each  requires,  how  each  sees 
the  world  in  a  radically  different  way,  and  how  that 
leads  to  distinctive  ways  of  life.  (II) 

PHL  1115  Understanding  Religious  Man         4  Q.H. 

This  course  examines  several  important  explanations 
of  the  nature,  origin,  and  present  significance  of  reli- 
gious experience,  beliefs,  and  practices  in  the  light  of 
modern  knowledge  and  attitudes. 

PHL  1 1 30  Ethics:  East  and  West  4  Q.H. 

Is  there  a  best  way  to  live?  Is  there  a  way  a  human 
being  should  live?  In  both  Eastern  and  Western  phi- 
losophy there  are  claims  that  a  way  of  life  exists  that 
leads  to  happiness,  power,  and  wisdom.  This  course 
explores  this  claim  by  studying  the  thought  of  such 
philosophers  as  Socrates,  Buddha,  Plato,  Aristotle, 
Lao  Tzu,  Epictetus,  Marcus  Aurelius,  Aquinas,  and 
Spinoza,  as  well  as  by  studying  some  of  the  classical 
Hindu  and  Buddhist  texts. 

PHL  1 135  Philosophical  Problems  of  Law  and 
Justice  4  Q.H. 

This  course  focuses  on  two  general  questions:  What 
is  the  proper  scope  of  the  law?  And  how  should  the 
law  be  enforced?  Under  the  first  question,  a  number 
of  issues  are  dealt  with:  whether  the  law  has  a  legiti- 
mate right  to  restrict  such  activities  as  the  use  of 
drugs,  deviant  sexual  practices,  or  gambling.  Topics 
included  in  the  second  question  are  the  justification 
of  punishment,  rehabilitation  as  an  alternative  to  pun- 
ishment, and  the  death  penalty. 

PHL  1 1 40  Social  and  Political  Philosophy        4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy) 

A  consideration  of  basic  questions  about  the  nature  of 
the  state  and  the  relationship  of  individuals  to  the 
state.  What  basis  is  there  for  individuals  to  obey  the 
laws  of  the  state?  What  conditions  must  a  government 
meet  to  be  legitimate?  What  justification  can  be  given 


for  democratic  forms  of  government?  What  sorts  of 
controls  should  the  state  exert  over  citizens?  What 
benefits  do  citizens  have  a  right  to  expect  from  !he 
state?  Readings  will  include  both  classical  and  con- 
temporary sources.  (V) 

PHL  1 1 45  Technology  and  Human  Values       4  Q.H. 

The  course  examines  the  changing  values  of  the 
modern,  technologically  advanced  world.  Our  study 
attempts  to  increase  our  understanding  of  the  sup- 
posed breach  between  the  literary  and  scientific 
cultures,  the  diverse  approaches  toward  their  rec- 
onciliation, and  the  human  dimensions  of  science 
and  technology  Other  relevant  topics  are  the  neu- 
trality of  technology  with  respect  to  good  or  evil  uses, 
technology  as  an  instrument  for  human  liberation, 
and  the  issue  of  proper  and  effective  modes  of  con- 
trolling technology  in  today's  world.  Pirsig's  widely 
read  paperback,  Zen  and  the  Art  of  Motorcycle  Main- 
tenance, is  studied,  as  is  Lynn  White's  Dynamo  and 
Virgin  Reconsidered.  Other  important  writers  to  be 
considered  include  Kurt  Baler,  Jacob  Bronowski,  Barry 
Commoner,  Erich  Fromm,  Karl  Marx,  and  C.  P  Snow. 
(VI) 

PHL  1 1 50  Technology  and  the  Individual         4  Q.H. 

This  introductory  course  attempts  to  awaken  some 
philosophical  reflectiveness  regarding  the  potential 
bene/its  and  threats  to*individuals  that  derive  from 
technological  change.  The  course  explores  and 
discusses  such  issues  as  the  relation  of  technology  to 
human  freedom  and  privacy,  the  effects  of  "future 
shock"  upon  the  individual,  the  possibility  of  the 
tyranny  of  a  technological  elite,  and  the  prospects  for 
the  transformation  of  humankind.  Some  writers  see 
technology  as  the  salvation  of  humanity;  others  see 
technology  leading  to  dehumanization,  a  decrease  of 
freedom,  and  a  developing  sense  of  alienation;  still 
others  see  the  extinction  of  "human  nature"  as  we 
once  knew  it.  Where  is  the  truth  in  all  of  this?  What  are 
the  social,  psychological,  and  philosophical  meanings 
and  consequences  of  technological  change  in  our 
day  and  in  the  future?  Some  of  the  major  readings  for 
the  course  are  from  Alvin  Toffler's  Future  Shock,  Herbert 
Marcuse's  One  Dimensional  Man,  Jacques  Ellul's 
important  criticism  The  Technological  Society,  and 
Lewis  Mumford's  The  Transformation  of  Man. 

PHL  1155  The  Ethics  of  Human  and  Animal 
Experimentation  4  Q.H. 

This  course  explores  the  conflicts  that  arise  between 
the  value  of  free  scientific  inquiry  on  the  one  hand, 
and  the  rights,  vulnerabilities,  and  suffering  of  human 
and  animal  subjects  on  the  other  Topics  include 
traditional  issues  involving  informed  consent,  volun- 


Philosophy  and  Religion  / 1 49 


tariness,  coercion,  experimental  design,  risk-benefit 
analyses,  institutional  review  boards,  and  professional 
guidelines,  as  well  as  such  less  traditional  issues  as 
the  competing  conceptions  of  progress,  whether  we 
have  obligations  to  nonhuman  animals,  and  what,  if 
anything,  justifies  us  in  treating  nonhuman  animals  in 
ways  in  which  we  know  we  should  not  treat  human 
animals. 

PHL  11 60  Ethical  Issues  of  Taxation  4  Q.H. 

Although  we  tend  to  believe  that  persons  have  a  right 
to  their  own  labor,  a  right  to  their  own  property,  and  a 
right  to  exchange  their  labor  or  property  for  the  labor 
or  property  of  other  consenting  adults,  it  seems  that 
income  taxes,  property  taxes,  and  sales  taxes  violate 
these  rights.  This  course  explores  two  basic  ques- 
tions: Is  any  taxation  morally  justified?  Are  there  moral 
grounds  for  choosing  among  taxation  policies?  Speci- 
fic topics  include  competing  conceptions  of  private 
property;  the  "progressive  versus  regressive  taxation" 
controversy;  the  "flat  tax"  controversy;  the  alleged 
problems  with  interpersonal  utility  comparisons;  and 
questions  involving  the  distribution  of  tax  monies, 
e.g.,  whether  those  who  have  more  than  they  need 
have  any  moral  obligation  to  provide  for  the  needs  of 
the  poor 

PHL  1 1 65  Moral  Problems  in  Medicine  4  Q.H. 

This  course  examines  two  fundamental  ethical  sys- 
tems, one  of  which  is  grounded  on  the  dignity  of  the 
person,  the  other  on  the  intrinsic  value  of  happiness. 
The  course  then  explores  the  difficult  issues  of  eutha- 
nasia, suicide,  paternalism,  medical  experimentation, 
the  patient's  right  to  consent  to  any  therapeutic  inter- 
vention, and  the  concept  of  death  with  dignity.  After 
studying  these  and  related  moral  issues,  the  larger 
economic  and  policy  issues  of  justice,  some  of  which 
are  current  in  political  debates,  are  examined  (for 
example:  Is  there  a  right  to  health  care?).  It  is  hoped 
that  this  course  will  encourage  the  student  to  become 
more  sensitive  to  moral  problems  as  they  arise  in 
medical  settings,  better  able  to  deal  with  these  trou- 
blesome issues,  and  perhaps  to  be  more  courageous 
in  facing  them  if  that  becomes  necessary.  The  course 
also  offers  an  investigation  into  the  questions  of 
abortion,  euthanasia,  infanticide,  genetic  counseling, 
psychosurgery  and  human  experimentation  from  the 
standpoint  of  both  philosophical  ethics  (such  as  the 
theory  of  the  end  justifying  the  means)  and  religious 
ethics  (such  as  the  natural  law  theory  of  the  Roman 
Catholic  Church). 

PHL  1200  Introduction  to  Logic-1*  4  Q.H. 

A  practical  introduction  to  the  logic  of  propositions 
and  the  syllogism.  Principles  of  critical  reasoning  and 
fallacies.  Practice  in  applying  logical  techniques  to 
the  creation  and  criticism  of  argument.  (II) 

PHL  1 203  Introduction  to  Logic-2*  4  Q.H. 

Further  study  of  the  techniques  of  logic  in  the  analysis 
and  creation  of  argument.  The  logic  of  predicates, 
quantifiers,  and  relations.  Practice  in  applying  these 
techniques  to  natural  arguments.  Consideration  of 


the  forms  of  definition  and  the  evaluation  of  empirical 
generalizations.  (II) 

PHL  1 21 5  Symbolic  Logic*  4  Q.H. 

The  course  offers  a  presentation  of  the  syntax  and 
semantics  of  prepositional  logic  and  first-order  quan- 
tification theory  Relations  between  these  systems 
and  natural  language  are  considered.  The  course 
covers  analysis  of  the  notion  of  derivation  within  a 
system  and  the  notion  of  logical  consequence,  and 
practice  in  analyzing  logical  structure  in  natural 
language  sentences.  (II) 

PHL  1 225  Ancient  Philosophy  4  Q.H. 

An  exploration  of  classical  Greek  philosophy  the 
course  starts  with  a  study/discussion  of  the  roots  of 
Western  thought  in  the  sixth  century  B.C.  and  argues 
the  reasons  for  our  debt  to  these  original  thinkers  who 
were  concerned  with  explaining  the  principles  of 
external  nature  and  the  problems  of  human  knowl- 
edge and  conduct.  Central  to  understanding  these 
problems  is  the  study  of  Socrates  and  his  adversar- 
ies, the  Sophists,  and  the  two  major  figures  he  influ- 
enced: Plato  and  Aristotle.  The  course  also  covers 
Roman  philosophy  the  Stoics,  and  the  Sceptics,  who 
are  a  prelude  to  the  early  Christian  philosophers  of 
the  first  century  A.D.  Throughout  the  course,  attention 
is  placed  upon  the  interplay  between  the  philosopher 
and  the  moral,  social,  and  religious  context  in  which 
his  thought  arises.  Student  participation  in  class  dis- 
cussion is  very  important  to  the  course.  (Ill) 

PHL  1 230  Modern  Philosophy  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  8  Q.H.  philosophy) 

The  100  years  between  1650  and  1750,  sometimes 
called  "the  century  of  genius,"  were  a  period  in  which 
philosophers  reacted  to  the  new  scientific  discoveries 
of  Copernicus,  Kepler,  and  Galileo.  Out  of  this  reaction 
came  new  ways  of  thinking  about  the  nature  of  knowl- 
edge and  the  nature  of  the  world  itself.  The  course 
focuses  on  the  development  of  the  rationalist  and 
empirical  philosophies  during  this  period,  with  em- 
phasis on  Descartes,  Leibniz,  Spinoza,  Locke,  Berkeley 
and  Hume.  (Ill) 

PHL  1243  Existentialism  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy) 

Existentialist  philosophy  is  examined  in  its  greatest 
representatives,  such  as  Kierkegaard,  Nietzsche, 
Dostoevski,  Heidegger,  Jaspers,  and  Camus,  with  major 
attention  given  to  Jean-Paul  Sartre  and  Maurice 
Merleau-Ponty.  The  focus  of  this  course  will  be  on 
central  themes,  including  self-alienation,  unauthen- 
ticity  authenticity,  and  existential  experiences.  Exis- 
tential philosophy  is  examined  in  its  historical,  social, 
and  cultural  relations,  and  in  its  influence  on  psychol- 
ogy psychoanalysis,  sociology  political  science,  and 
literature,  both  in  Europe  and  in  the  United  States. 

'students  should  take  either  PHL  1200  and  PHL  1203 
or  PHL  1 200  and  PHL  1 21 5.  Credit  will  not  be  given 
for  all  three  courses.

PHL  1 245  Analytic  Philosophy  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  8  Q.H.  philosophy) 

The  development  of  the  analytic  movement  from  its 
beginnings  in  the  early  works  of  Moore  and  Russell. 
Some  treatment  of  Russell's  logical  atomism,  the

and  their  widespread  influence. 

PHL  1 250  Chinese  Philosophy  4  Q.H. 

This  course  offers  a  study  of  Chinese  philosophy  in 
the  ancient  period  (until  221  B.C.).  Emphasis  is  placed 
on  Confucianism,  Taoism,  and  the  /  Ching.  Less 
emphasis  will  be  placed  on  the  Logicians,  the  Mohists, 
and  the  Legalists.  i 

PHL  1 255  Indian  Philosophy  4  Q.H. 

In  this  course  we  examine  the  two  classical  Indian 
philosophical  systems  of  Hinduism  and  Buddhism.  In 
examining  Theravada  Buddhism,  we  explore  the  view 
that  it  is  possible  for  us  to  live  without  anxiety  or 
suffering  if  we  overcome  our  ignorance  of  reality  and 
master  our  desires.  Next,  we  turn  to  Mahayana 
Buddhism,  focusing  on  its  ethics  of  compassion  and 
its  related  metaphysics  of  "voidness."  In  this  part  of 
the  course,  we  examine  questions  which,  in  the  West, 
are  thought  of  as  questions  about  personal  identity 
and  the  nature  of  the  self.  In  exploring  Hinduism,  we 
study  Vedic  mysticism  as  it  comes  to  us  through  the 
Upanishads,  as  well  as  the  influential  ethics  of  the 
Bhagavad  Gita.  Among  the  philosophical  issues  that 
arise  in  our  examination  of  Hinduism  is  the  question 
of  wheher  the  method  of  yoga  and  meditation  is  a 
reasonable  method  for  learning  about  the  fundamen- 
tal nature  of  reality. 

While  studying  the  classical  texts  of  these  systems, 
we  will  critically  explore  the  techniques  employed 
within  these  traditions:  the  method  of  yoga,  the  function 
of  the  guru,  various  methods  of  meditation,  the  point 
of  non-violence,  the  function  of  philosophical  analysis, 
and  the  role  of  the  austerities.  In  so  doing,  we  study 
Hinduism  as  it  is  currently  practiced  in  India;  Theravada 
Buddhism  as  it  is  currently  practiced  in  Sri  Lanka  and 
Thailand;  the  Tibetan  tradition  of  Mahayana  Buddhism; 
and  the  nonviolence  of  Gandhi. 
To  study  Indian  philosophy  is  to  study  a  tradition  of 
philosophy  in  which  ethics  is  not  fragmented  from 
epistemology  knowledge  is  more  than  justified  true 
belief,  and  one's  metaphysics  is  to  be  realized.  In  our 
study,  besides  the  classical  texts,  we  will  employ  films 
and  guest  speakers. 

PHL  1265  American  Religions  4  Q.H. 

This  course  will  approach  the  American  religious 
tradition  from  thfee  perspectives.  First,  we  shall 
examine  the  transplanted  and  transformed  European 
traditions  in  the  context  of  American  diversity  and 
pluralism.  The  Protestant,  Roman  Catholic,  and  Jewish 
traditions  will  be  the  most  significant  examples. 
Second,  we  shall  look  into  the  rise  and  establishment 
of  largely  indigenous  religious  groups  who  have  forged 
their  own  foundations  in  the  midst  of  the  older  tradi- 
tions. Among  others,  the  Mormons,  the  Hutterites,  the 
Mennonites,  the  perfectionist  groups  (such  as  the 


older  Oneida  Community  and  the  Shakers,  and  the 
more  recent  "cults"),  and  the  black  and  Native 
American  groups  are  especially  significant  because 
of  their  attempts  to  survive  apart  from  the  general 
culture.  Third,  we  shall  explore  the  theory  of  an 
American  civil  religion— the  notion  that  there  is  a 
general  religious  meaning  for  American  culture  that 
makes  the  coexistence  of  the  many  religious  groups 
possible  and  gives  to  that  culture  and  its  history  a 
religious  significance.  The  purpose  of  the  course  will 
be  to  achieve  an  understanding  of  what  is  unique  and 
viable  in  the  American  religious  tradition. 

PHL  1 270  Western  Religions  4  Q.H. 

Western  religion  is  grounded  in  the  experience  of 
God's  presence,  which  transcends  and  transfigures 
the  life  of  the  individual  and  the  community.  This 
encounter  is  the  essence  of  Judaism,  Christianity,  and 
Islam.  Drawing  on  autobiography  and  biography,  this 
course  delves  into  the  personal  religious  quests  of 
such  major  religious  thinkers  as  St.  Augustine,  St. 
Theresa,  Martin  Luther,  Elie  Wiesel,  Richard  Ruben- 
stein,  Dietrich  Bonhoeffer,  and  Mohammed. 

PHL  1 275  Eastern  Religions  4  Q.H. 

Eastern  religions  appear  to  be  fundamentally  different 
from  the  orthodox  religions  of  the  West  Not  only  do 
Hinduism,  Buddhism,  and  Taoism  promise  a  solution 
to  the  problem  of  suffering  (compare  the  common 
Christian  and  Jewish  attitudes),  but  most  of  these 
religions  do  not  have  a  central  God  personality,  and 
some  explicitly  reject  such  a  concept  as  meaningless, 
or  at  least  as  irrelevant  to  leading  a  religious  life. 
Central  to  these  views  is  a  way  of  being  in  the  world 
which  emphasizes  meditation,  skillful  and  compas- 
sionate action,  and  a  direct  awareness  of  the  funda- 
mental nature  of  reality.  The  course  first  tries  to  make 
sense  of  the  difficult  notion  that  the  way  we  perceive 
reality  may  be  illusory.  It  then  examines  Theravada 
Buddhism,  a  religion  that  rests  on  the  insights  that 
everything  is  impermanent  and  that  it  is  possible  to 
live  fully  in  the  present  without  any  suffering.  From 
Theravada  Buddhism,  the  course  turns  to  Hahayana 
Buddhism,  and  then  to  Taoism,  a  subtle  view  that 
emphasizes  the  "flow"  of  life  and  that  "the  way  to  do  is 
to  be."  Next,  the  Hinduism  of  the  Upanishads  is 
examined.  As  part  of  the  exploration  of  this  form  of 
Hinduism,  students  are  given  the  opportunity  to 
examine  intellectually  and  also  to  practice  a  few 
methods  of  meditation.  In  addition,  the  course  inves- 
tigates the  devotional  aspect  of  Hinduism  as  expressed 
in  the  Bhagavad  Gita.  There  will  also  be  an  exploration 
of  Zen.  (IV) 

PHL  1280  islam  4  Q.H. 

The  course  explores  the  history  of  Islam,  its  conflicts 
with  the  West  in  past  and  present.  Islamic  beliefs,  the 
future  of  Islam  as  a  world  religion,  and  relations  of 
Islam  with  Christianity  and  Judaism.  Since  Islamic 
faith  touches  upon  social,  political,  and  legal  issues, 
the  course  is  concerned  with  them  as  well  as  with  the 
more  familiar  religious  and  theological  questions.  (IV) 


Philosophy  and  Religion  / 1 51 


PHL  1 290  Cults  and  Sects  4  Q.H. 

This  course  offers  an  examination  of  the  varieties  of 
religious  experience  from  the  perspectives  of  sociol- 
ogy and  psychology  of  religion.  This  course  focuses 
on  such  cultic  and  sectarian  groups  as  Christian 
Science,  the  American  Shakers,  the  Unification 
Church,  the  Hare  Krishna  movement,  and  the  Black 
Muslims.  The  primary  purpose  of  this  course  is  to 
provide  the  student  the  opportunity  to  acquire  critical 
investigative  tools  with  which  to  analyze  different  reli- 
gious expressions.  (Ill) 

PHL  1 293  Mysticism:  East  and  West  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  PHL  1 1 1 5  or  permission  of  instructor) 
The  course  offers  an  inquiry  into  mystical  experience 
through  a  comparative  study  of  the  writings  of  Chris- 
tian, Buddhist,  and  Hindu  mystics  and  of  secondary 
interpretive  sources.  Areas  taken  up  are  the  potential 
oneness  of  man  and  God,  the  conflict  of  mystics  with 
traditional  forms  of  religion,  and  the  possibility  of  a 
common,  cross-cultural  basis  for  mysticism. 

PHL  1295  Medicine,  Religion,  and  the  Healers'  Art 

4Q.H. 

Thiscourseexploresaspectsofthehistorical, religious, 
and  cultural  context  for  contemporary  alternatives  in 
health  care,  beginning  with  an  examination  of  several 
examples  of  traditional  healing  practices  and  their 
accompanying  religious  and  philosophical  views  about 
human  life.  Course  material  explores  this  "holistic" 
tradition  in  two  frames  of  reference:  the  ascendancy 
of  scientific  rationalism  over  religion,  and  the  takeover, 
by  male-dominated  professions,  of  healing  functions 
that  society  has  traditionally  assigned  to  women  (e.g., 
the  rise  of  obstetrics  and  the  suppression  of  midwife- 
ry). Special  attention  is  given  to  major  women  healers 
of  the  nineteenth  century.  Course  includes  a  look  at 
some  contemporary  efforts  at  reintegration  of  scien- 
tific and  traditional  values  in  the  modern  health  care 
system.  Students  will  also  meet  and  interact  with 
patients  and  healers  active  in  the  modern  holistic 
health  movement. 

PHL  1300  Religion  in  a  Social  Context  4  Q.H. 

This  course  offers  an  exploration  of  the  social  forms  of 
religion.  The  structures  and  roles  of  the  church,  syna- 
gogue, and  sect  are  described  and  critically  evaluat- 
ed. In  addition,  emphasis  is  given  to  their  functions, 
with  reference  to  general  social  structure,  process, 
and  reform. 

PHL  1305  Religion  in  the  Age  of  Science         4  Q.H. 

This  course  examines  the  problems  posed  by  the 
interaction  between  religion  and  the  natural  and  social 
sciences.  Representative  selections  from  Hume,  Dar- 
win, Marx,  Freud,  Erickson,  and  Troeltsch  are  used  to 
interact  with  selections  from  Bultmann,  Teilhard  de 
Chardin,  Niebuhr,  Bonhoeffer,  and  Tillich. 

PHL  1 31 0  The  Occult  as  Religion  4  Q.H. 

The  course  focuses  on  the  history,  aims,  and  methods 
of  such  esoteric  or  mystic  doctrines  as  astrology 
numerology,  magic,  demonism,  and  divination,  and 
investigates  the  structural  similarities  of  these  religious 


forms  to  those  of  the  dominant  religious  traditions  of 
the  world. 

PHL  1 31 5  Understanding  the  Bible  4  Q.H. 

This  course  introduces  students  to  the  Old  and  New 
Testaments,  so  that  they  may  enter  into  a  dialogue 
with  the  Bible,  understanding  not  only  what  it  says,  but 
why  it  is  said  that  way  To  do  this,  discussion  focuses 
on  the  Bible's  social,  political,  and  cultural  back- 
grounds. (Ill) 

PHL  1 320  The  Meaning  of  Death  4  Q.H. 

This  course  offers  an  inquiry  into  different  philo- 
sophical and  religious  perspectives  on  death  and  life 
after  death,  including  an  examination  of  some  powerful 
contemporary  accounts  of  personal  confrontation  with 
death,  along  with  investigations  into  attitudes  toward 
death  in  other  traditions  (e.g.,  Hinduism  and  Budd- 
hism). In  addition,  the  course  explores  responses  to 
the  Holocaust  in  Europe,  and  theories  about  life  after 
death  (such  as  those  discussed  in  Raymond  Moody's 
Life  After  Life  and  Ian  Stevenson's  Reincarnation).  (V) 

PHL  1325  Philosophy  of  Death,  Grief,  and  Dying 

4  Q.H. 

This  course  explores  fears  about  death  and  dying  and 
the  grieving  process,  and  examines  the  processes 
people  sometimes  experience  while  dying.  In  addition, 
the  course  examines  current  practices  of  caring  for 
the  dying  and  of  coping  with  bereavement,  question- 
ing whether  these  practices  are,  in  fact,  healthy,  helpful, 
and/or  ethical.  Other  relevant  ethical  issues  to  be 
examined  include  euthanasia,  truth-telling  with  the 
dying,  suicide,  and  paternalism.  The  course  will  close 
with  the  question  of  the  meaning  of  life,  given  the  fact 
that  we  must  die. 

PHL  1 335  Moral  Philosophy  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy  or  religion  or  permission  of 
instructor) 

What  sorts  of  things  are  good  and  bad?  What  actions 
are  right  and  wrong?  These  two  basic  questions  are 
explored.  The  course  covers  major  classical  concep- 
tions of  ancient  Greece  and  Rome,  their  replacement 
by  the  Western  religious  ethic,  its  modification  and 
rejection  in  the  early  modern  period,  and  the  emer- 
gence of  modern  versions  of  traditional  conceptions 
of  the  good  life,  with  reflections  on  the  nature  of  ethical 
inquiry  itself  as  a  legitimate  study 

PHL  1 340  Aesthetics  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy) 

This  course  offers  a  historical  approach  to  aesthetics. 
Aesthetics  is  the  philosophical  analysis  of  concepts 
and  the  solution  of  problems  that  arise  when  one 
contemplates  beautiful  (or  ugly)  objects;  it  is  also 
concerned  with  standards  of  value  in  judging  art. 
Aesthetics  asks  the  following  questions:  What  features 
make  objects  beautiful  (or  ugly)?  Are  there  aesthetic 
standards?  What  is  the  relation  of  works  of  art  to 
nature?  What  is  the  nature  of  an  aesthetic  experience? 

PHL  1 345  Philosophy  of  Religion  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy) 

The  basic  question  in  this  course  is  "Does  God  exist?" 


152  /  Philosophy  and  Religion 


The  course  examines  several  major  arguments  affirm- 
ing and  criticizing  the  notion  of  God's  existence.  A 
central  problem  in  recent  philosophy  of  religion  is 
whether  or  not  it  makes  any  sense  to  speak  of  the  truth 
(or  falsity)  of  religious  belief,  as  well  as  the  implication 
an  answer  to  that  issue  has  for  religious  life;  this  topic 
will  be  examined  in  the  latter  half  of  the  course. 

PHL  1350  Philosophy  of  Human  Nature  4  Q.H. 

The  course  offers  a  philosophical  inquiry  into  the 
theories  of  man,  man's  dimensions,  and  human  nature. 
The  question  of  the  existence  of  human  nature  is 
thoroughly  examined.  Special  interest  will  be  given  to 
contemporary  theories  of  man  and  self-alienation, 
and  their  influence  in  social  sciences.  Selected 
readings  from  Descartes,  Hobbes,  Hegel,  Marx,  Kier- 
kegaard, Maritain,  Freud,  Skinner,  Fromm,  and  Frankl. 

PHL  1355  Existentialism  and  Literature  4  Q.H. 

After  World  Wars  I  and  II,  existentialist  philosophy 
inspired  the  literature  of  "extreme  situations."  This 
course  examines  human  extreme  experiences  in  exis- 
tentialist philosophy  and  novels.  Some  of  the  major 
themes  are  loneliness;  self-alienation;  social  pres- 
sures; conformity;  absurdity;  anxiety;  social,  political, 
and  moral  crises;  nothingness;  and  death.  Selected 
readings  will  include  the  most  influential  European 
and  American  authors. 

PHL  1 360  Philosophy  and  Literature  4  Q.H. 

The  purpose  of  this  course  is  to  provide  the  student 
the  opportunity  to  learn  to  recognize,  appreciate,  and 
criticize  philosophical  themes  in  literature.  The  read- 
ings typically  include  acknowledged  classics  by  phil- 
osophical authors  such  as  Voltaire,  Dostoevski,  and 
Sartre,  as  well  as  such  popular  contemporary  authors 
as  Vonnegut,  Barth,  and  Pynchon.  There  are  also 
some  readings  from  more  straightforward  philosoph- 
ical sources.  Philosophical  topics  include  the  meaning 
of  life,  the  human  condition,  depersonalization,  alien- 
ation, human  freedom,  questions  of  value,  responsi- 
bility, rationality  and  personal  identity.  Religious, 
nihilistic,  existential,  and  other  points  of  view  are 
explored. 

PHL  1 370  The  Meaning  of  Life  4  Q.H. 

The  course  offers  an  examination  of  selected  phil- 
osophical problems  of  human  existence  in  the  con- 
temporary world,  with  major  emphasis  on  the  search 
for  identity  and  self-fulfillment.  Selected  problems  are 
discussed,  such  as  freedom,  death,  sexuality,  alien- 
ation, becoming  a  person,  and  peak  experiences.  The 
course  includes  readings  from  Kierkegaard,  Heideg- 
ger, Sartre,  Camus,  Maslow,  Allport,  Frankl,  Rogers, 
and  Rollo  May

tive and  criticisms  of  them  from  the  point  of  view  of 
reformed  Freudians  and  existentialists.  Selections 


include  Freud,  Jung,  Adier,  Karen  Horney  Skinner, 
Koestler,  Pearls,  Sartre,  Merleau-Ponty,  and  Kovaly 

PHL  1 400  Theory  of  Knowledge  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy  or  permission  of  instruc- 
tor) 

This  is  an  introduction  to  epistemology  or  theory  of 
knowledge,  which  asks  the  following  questions:  What 
is  knowledge?  Is  knowledge  (or  even  certainty)  attain- 
able? What  are  the  limitations  of  human  knowledge? 
How  is  knowledge-if  we  have  it-acquired?  What 
roles  do  reason  and  experience  play  in  the  attempt  to 
attain  knowledge?  This  course  uses  both  classical 
(Rene  Descartes  and  David  Hume)  and  contemporary 
sources  (Bertrand  Russell  and  others).  Various 
theories  of  knowledge,  such  as  empiricism,  rational- 
ism, and  scepticism,  are  examined  and  criticized.  The 
student  is  encouraged  to  form  at  least  tentative 
opinions  on  these  issues. 

PHL  1 405  Metaphysics  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  8  Q.H.  philosophy) 

The  course  offers  a  consideration  of  central  problems 
and  theories  concerning  the  nature  of  reality,  with 
special  attention  to  such  areas  as  the  relation  between 
mind  and  matter,  free  will  and  determinism,  and  criteria 
of  existence. 

PHL  1 41 0  Philosophy  of  Science  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy) 

Science  is  the  dominant  intellectual  force  of  our 
culture.  This  course  focuses  on  the  nature  of  scientific 
method,  scientific  theories,  and  scientific  explana- 
tions. A  central  question  is:  Why  is  science  thought  to 
provide  the  most  reliable  account  of  the  nature  of 
reality?  Various  theories  about  the  nature  and  reliabil- 
ity of  science  are  considered. 

PHL  1 41 5  Advanced  Logic  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  PHL  1215) 

The  course  offers  a  study  of  the  major  results  in  the 
meta-theory  of  first-order  logic.  Consistency,  com- 
pleteness, and  decidability.  Discussion  of  the  general 
notion  of  an  effectively  computable  process.  Church's 
thesis,  and  the  existence  of  unsolvable  problems. 

PHL  1 430  Philosophy  of  Psychology  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy  or  4  Q.H.  psychology  or 
permission  of  instructor) 

The  course  offers  an  examination  of  the  philosophical 
and  scientific  foundations  of  behavioristic  psycholo- 
gy, with  emphasis  on  the  acquisition  and  use  of 
language.  Discussion  of  alternative  conceptions,  e.g., 
Chomsky's  and  those  arising  from  computer  studies. 

PHL  1 435  Philosophy  of  Mind  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  4  Q.H.  philosophy) 

What  is  the  relation  between  mind  and  body?  Is  the 
mental  merely  a  function  of  bodily  process  and 
behavior  or  does  it  somehow  exist  "over  and  above" 
the  material?  How  are  self-knowledge  and  knowledge 
of  other  minds  achieved?  What  is  the  relation  between 
words  and  thoughts?  This  course  in  part,  seeks  to 
show  what  puzdes  and  problems  result  from  an  honest 
attempt  to  answer  these  questions  in  a  reasonable 


Physics  / 1 53 


way.  Classical  sources,  such  as  Descartes  and  Locke, 
and  contemporary  sources,  such  as  Wittgenstein  and 
Putnam,  are  examined.  But  the  course  also  seeks  to 
arrive  at  some  answers— however  tentative  or  pro- 
visional—to these  questions.  The  student  is  constantly 
challenged  to  think  and  write  well  about  these  difficult 
subjects. 

PHL  1 440  Philosophy  of  Language  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  Permission  of  instructor) 
The  course  examines  prospects  for  a  theory  of 
language,  its  syntax  and  semantics.  Contrasts  between 
theory  of  reference  and  theory  of  meaning.  Are  there 
universals  of  language?  Relations  between  linguistics 
and  psychology  Readings  from  Frege,  Quine,  Russell, 
Chomsky,  and  Fodor 

PHL  1550,  PHL  1551,  PHL  1552 

Honors  I,  II,  and  III  (each)  4  Q.H. 

Students  interested  in  taking  Junior-Senior  Honors 
courses  should  confer  with  department  chairperson. 
Arrangements  are  made  between  the  student  and  a 
member  of  the  faculty.  Staffing  by  arrangement. 

PHL  1 565  Seminar  in  Wittgenstein  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  8  Q.H.  philosophy  or  permission  of  instructor) 
Ludwig  Wittgenstein  is  one  of  the  most  influential,  if 
not  the  most  influential,  philosophers  of  the  twentieth 
century.  A  mysterious  yet  charismatic  figure,  he  pos- 
sessed both  analytic  genius  and  the  creativity  of  a 
visionary.  With  unparalleled  intensity,  he  addressed 
himself  to  philosophical  problems.  What  is  the  rela- 
tionship between  language  and  the  world?  Are  there 
thoughts  "too  deep"  for  words?  What,  if  anything,  can 
be  said  about  the  mystical,  the  beautiful,  and  the 
religious?  What  is  consciousness  and  what  is  its  role 
in  action?  What  are  the  big,  simple,  mistaken  ideas 
that  cripple  the  philosophical  enterprise?  How  should 


philosophers  proceed?  What  is  meaningful?  Wittgen- 
stein's thought  is  so  unique  that  it  cannot  be  said  that 
any  other  course,  or  courses,  in  Philosophy  will  prepare 
the  student  for  it.  On  the  other  hand,  intelligent  students 
with  little  formal  preparation  can  profit  from  a  study  of 
Wittgenstein,  given  the  proper  dedication  to  truth. 

PHL  1 800  Directed  Studies  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  By  arrangement  between  student  and  fac- 
ulty)

PHL  3265  Issues  in  Medical  Ethics  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  permission  of  instructor) 
This  course  focuses  on  issues  in  medical  ethics, 
especially  as  they  are  likely  to  arise  in  a  clinical 
setting.  Course  begins  with  exploration  of  the  two 
basic  systems  of  ethical  theory  and  then  concen- 
trates on  their  application  in  cases  exemplifying  the 
issues  of  euthanasia,  paternalism,  experimentation, 
informed  consent,  quality  of  life,  professional  respon- 
sibility, right  to  health  care,  truth  telling,  genetic  con- 
trol, abortion,  and  the  allocation  of  scarce  medical 
resources. 

INT  1400  Professional  Practices:  Individual  and 
Social  Dimensions  4  Q.H. 

The  course  explores  the  dimensions  and  dilemmas  of 
freedom  and  responsibility  confronting  professional 
people  practicing  within  the  limits  set  by  socioeco- 
nomic conditions,  clients,  and  other  professionals. 
Case  histories  are  examined  to  illustrate  the  dilemmas 
professionals  face,  the  choices  that  are  typically  made, 
and  the  consequences  these  have  on  the  freedom  of 
the  practitioner  and  on  personal  and  professional 
integrity.

ENT  1358  Small  Business  Institute  Project 

8  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  Junior  standing;  one  entrepreneurship 
course  or  permission  of  instructor) 
The  Small  Business  Institute  Reld  Project  was  brought 
into  existence  with  the  cooperation  of  the  Small 
Business  Administration  (SBA)  and  some  of  its  client 
companies  in  Greater  Boston.  A  student  team  is 
expected  to  interact  with  a  smaller  company  helping 
management  to  analyze  opportunities  and  problems 
facing  the  business,  and  to  develop  practical  recom- 
mendations for  the  company's  decision  makers. 
Students  are  expected  to  allocate  approximately  one 
day  per  week  to  the  project,  including  on-site  work 
with  the  company  owner-managers  with  whom  they 
have  been  paired  and  to  participate  in  related  research, 
report  preparation,  and  presentation  of  results.  This 
real-world  experience  is  blended  with  occasional 
class  meetings  and  frequent  team  meetings  with  a 
faculty  member  to  discuss  the  field  work  and  to 
explore  alternatives.  Interim  progress  reports  and  a 
final  report  are  presented  to  the  client  company  SBA, 
and  the  class. 

ENT  1812  Honors:  Risks  and  Rewards  of 
Entrepreneurship  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  Honors  participants  or  permission  of  instruc- 
tor) 

Anxiety  and  exhilaration  run  neck  and  neck  through 
the  small  business  experience.  The  degree  to  which 
these  extremes  of  emotion  occur  has  not  been 
thoroughly  studied.  So  far,  research  has  concentrated 
on  the  backgrounds  and  attributes  of  entrepreneurs 
rather  than  on  the  psychological  and  physiological 
"fallout"  from  running  their  companies.  The  purpose 
of  this  honors  seminar  will  be  to  identify  situations  and 
issues  that  can  cause  entrepreneurs  stress,  on  the 
one  hand,  and  satisfaction,  on  the  other.

demand,  waste,  and  pollution,  we  are  depleting-and 
risk  destroying— the  limited  supply  of  usable  fresh 
water  This  course  will  look  at  water  through  scientific, 
historical,  and  cultural  viewpoints,  and  survey  contem- 
porary water  problems  in  all  their  dimensions-political, 
economic,  and  technological.  (VI)

values  affecting  delivery  of  services;  exploration  of 
ethical  issues  and  dilemmas  relevant  to  human  serv- 
ices, grantsmanship  and  funding  issues;  staff  su- 
pervision and  development  within  human  services 
agencies;  and  refinement  of  group  leadership  skills. 

INT  1340  Cultural  Aspects  of  International 
Business  4  Q.H. 

(Prereq.  Middler  standing) 

Using  a  managerial  perspective,  this  course  will  cover 
issues  that  arise  when  a  firm  moves  from  its  home 
country  to  a  host  country  that  may  have  a  different 
national  culture.  Although  it  will  usually  take  the  per- 
spective of  the  United  States-based  firm  that  operates 
abroad,  the  course  will  spend  some  time  on  what 
happens  to  other  national  firms  operating  in  the  United 
States  and  in  third-country  environments.  The  way  in 
which  "corporate  culture"  evolves,  in  the  context  of 
national  culture  and  the  impact  on  managers,  will  be  a 
central  issue.

Delivery  of  Services 

The  University  assumes  no  liability,  and  hereby  expressly  negates  the  same,  for  failure 
to  provide  or  delay  in  providing  educational  or  related  services  or  facilities  or  for  any 
other  failure  or  delay  in  performance  arising  out  of  or  due  to  causes  beyond  the 
reasonable  control  of  the  University,  which  causes  include,  without  limitation,  power, 
failure,  fire,  strikes  by  University  employees  or  others,  damage  by  the  elements  and 
acts  of  public  authorities.  The  University  will,  however,  exert  reasonable  efforts,  when 
in  its  judgment  it  is  appropriate  to  do  so,  to  provide  comparable  or  substantially 
equivalent  services,  facilities  or  performance,  but  its  inability  or  failure  to  do  so  shall 
not  subject  it  to  liability. 

The  Northeastern  University  catalog  contains  current  information  regarding  the  Uni- 
versity calendar,  admissions,  degree  requirements,  fees,  and  regulations,  and  such 
information  is  not  intended  to  be  and  should  not  be  relied  upon  as  a  statement  of  the 
University's  contractual  undertakings. 

Northeastern  University  reserves  the  right  in  its  sole  judgment  to  promulgate  and 
change  rules  and  regulations  and  to  make  changes  of  any  nature  in  its  program, 
calendar,  admissions  policies,  procedures  and  standards,  degree  requirements,  fees, 
and  academic  schedule  whenever  it  is  deemed  necessary  or  desirable,  including, 
without  limitation,  changes  in  course  content,  the  rescheduling  of  classes,  cancelling 
of  scheduled  classes  and  other  academic  activities  and  requiring  or  affording  alter- 
natives for  scheduled  classes  or  other  academic  activities,  in  any  such  case  giving 
such  notice  as  is  reasonably  practicable  under  the  circumstances. 

Northeastern  will  do  its  best  to  make  available  to  you  the  finest  education,  the  most 
stimulating  atmosphere  and  the  most  congenial  conditions  it  can  provide.  But  the 
quality  and  the  rate  of  progress  of  your  academic  career  is  in  large  measure  dependent 
upon  your  own  abilities,  commitment,  and  effort.  This  is  equally  true  with  respect  to 
professional  advancement  upon  completion  of  the  degree  or  program  in  which  you 
are  enrolled.  The  University  cannot  guarantee  that  you  will  obtain  or  succeed  at  any 
particular  job;  that  will  depend  upon  your  own  skills,  achievement,  presentation  and 
other  factors  such  as  market  conditions  at  that  time.  Similarly,  in  many  professions 
and  occupations  there  are  increasing  requirements  imposed  by  federal  and  state 
statutes  and  regulatory  agencies  for  certification  or  entry  into  a  particular  field.  These 
may  change  during  the  period  of  time  when  you  are  at  Northeastern  and  they  may 
vary  from  state  to  state  and  from  country  to  country.  While  the  University  stands  ready 
to  help  you  find  out  about  these  requirements  and  changes,  it  is  your  responsibility 
to  initiate  the  inquiry  because  the  University  has  no  other  way  of  knowing  what  your 
expectations  and  understandings  are. 


In  brief,  the  University  is  there  to  offer  you  educational  opportunities  and  choices  and 
to  assist  you  in  finding  the  direction  in  which  you  want  to  steer  your  educational 
experience,  but  you  are  a  partner  in  this  venture  with  an  obligation  and  responsibility 
to  yourself. 

Northeastern  University's  Antidiscrimination  Policy 

Northeastern  University  is  committed  to  a  policy  of  equal  opportunity  for  all  students 
and  employees  without  regard  to  race,  color,  religion,  sex,  sexual  preference,  national 
origin,  or  handicap  or  veteran  status.  The  University  prohibits  discrimination  in  all 
matters  involving  admission,  registration,  and  all  official  relationships  with  students, 
including  evaluation  of  academic  performance. 

Equal  Opportunity  Employment  Policy 

Northeastern  University  is  an  equal  opportunity  employer.  It  is  institutional  policy  that 
there  shall  be  no  discrimination  against  any  employee  or  applicant  for  employment 
because  of  race,  color,  religion,  sex,  age,  national  origin,  or  handicap  or  veteran  status. 
Northeastern  also  prohibits  discrimination  against  any  employee  regarding  upgrading, 
demotion  or  transfer,  layoff  or  termination,  rates  of  pay  or  other  forms  of  compensation, 
and  selection  for  training.  In  addition.  Northeastern  adheres  to  Affirmative  Action 
guidelines  in  all  recruitment  endeavors. 

Further,  Northeastern  will  not  condone  any  forms  of  sexual  harassment  which  is 
defined  as  the  use  of  unwelcome  sexual  advances,  requests  for  favors,  and  other 
verbal  or  physical  conduct  of  a  sexual  nature:  as  an  explicit  or  implicit  condition  of 
employment,  as  the  basis  for  employment  decisions  or  to  interfere  with  an  individual's 
work  performance  by  creating  an  intimidating,  hostile,  or  offensive  work  environment. 

Inquiries  concerning  our  equal  opportunity  policies  may  be  referred  to  the  University 
Title  IX  Coordinator/Compliance  Officer  for  Section  504  of  the  Rehabilitation  Act  of 
1973,  Affirmative  Action  Office,  Richards  Hall.  Telephone:  617-437-2133. 

Accreditation  Statement

Colleges,  Inc.,  which  accredits  schools  and  colleges  in  the  six  New  England  states. 
Accreditation  by  the  Association  indicates  that  the  institution  has  been  carefully  eval- 
uated and  found  to  meet  standards  agreed  upon  by  qualified  educators.

Prereq.:  MSC  3806. 

MSC  3913  Operations  Management  in  the  Service 
Sector 

Traditional  courses  in  operations  management  usu- 
ally deal  with  manufacturing,  because  the  concepts 
and  techniques  of  operations  management  were 
originally  developed  in  manufacturing  settings.  How- 
ever, as  the  service  and  nonprofit  sectors  of  the 
economy  gain  in  importance,  they  have  greater  need 
for  the  types  of  tools  and  techniques  which  manu- 
facturing uses.  This  course  explores  the  applicability 
of  operations  management  techniques  in  non-man- 
ufacturing environments.  Industries  covered  include 
food  service,  health  care,  recreation,  equipment 
rental,  retailing,  banking,  insurance,  government 
services,  and  airlines.  Prereq.:  MSC  3806. 

MSC  3923  Ck)mputer  Models  for  Management 
Decision  Making 

This  course  is  designed  to  assist  students  in  learning 
the  use  of  the  computer  as  a  decision  aid,  rather 
than  simply  for  data  processing.  The  objectives  are 
to  enable  students  to  recognize  the  features  of  var- 
ious decision  problems  which  make  them  candidates 
for  computer  modeling,  to  specify  the  design  of  ap- 
propriate management  science  models,  and  to  real- 
istically interpret  the  output  from  these  models.  De- 
cision problems  will  be  drawn  primarily  from  the 
production,  finance,  and  marketing  areas.  Topical 
coverage  will  be  determined  by  the  instructor  and 
will  be  drawn  from  areas  such  as  the  following:  sim- 
ulation, linear  programming,  queuins  theory,  risk 
analysis,  inventory  models,  portfolio  theory,  and  Mar- 
kov processes.  Course  material  will  include  readings, 
cases,  and  lectures.  Students  will  use  the  computer 
extensively  in  their  case  preparations.  In  some  in- 
stances, "canned"  computer  programs  will  be  pro- 
vided; at  other  times  students  may  be  required  to 
write  their  own  models  in  languages  such  as  BASIC 
or  IFPS.  Prereq.:  MSC  3932  and  MSC  3803. 

MSC  3928  Decision  Support  Systems 

As  the  electronic  data  processing/management  in- 
formation systems  field  enters  its  second  quarter 
century,  a  number  of  important  changes  are  rapidly 
taking  place:  hardware  prices  are  decreasing  as 
power  is  increasing,  software  for  decision  support 
is  finally  maturing,  and  managers  expjerienced  in  data 
processing  techniques  are  rising  higher  in  many 
organizations.  This  course  is  designed  to  acquaint 
the  MBA  candidate  with  current  and  future  trends  in 
decision  support  systems.  Topical  coverage  will  in- 
clude: developments  in  hardware  and  software,  de- 
cision support  systems,  high-level  planning  lan- 
guages, and  the  politics  and  problems  of  systems 
implementation.  Because  this  course  is  heavily  di- 
rected toward  issues  of  man-machine  interaction  and 
decision  making,  it  is  significantly  narrower  in  scope 
than  either  MSC  3932  or  MSC  3933.  This  course 
is  usually  conducted  as  a  seminar,  and  registratic 


is  limited.  Extensive  classroom  participation  is  re- 
quired. Several  years  of  full-time  work  experience  is 
high  desirable,  but  not  an  absolute  requirement. 
Prereq.:  MSC  3932  or  MSC  3933.

as  the  primary  vehicle  to  illustrate  all  phases  in  the 
creation  and  management  of  computer-based  sys- 
tems. The  emphasis  of  the  course  is  on  management 
issues  rather  than  on  computer  technology  or  pro- 
gramming. This  course  is  designed  to  follow  MSC 
3932.  Thus,  it  is  the  logical  second  computer  course 
that  an  MBA  candidate  might  take.  Prereq.:  MSC 
3932. 

MSC  3934  High  Technology  Operations 
Management 

High  technology  industries  are  usually  characterized 
by  greater  degrees  of  innovation,  faster  rates  of  ob- 
solescence of  both  products  and  capital  equipment, 
and  manufacturing  operations  at  the  early  phases  of 
the  learning  curve.  These  factors  must  be  kept  con- 
stantly in  focus  for  efficient  operations.  This  course 
discusses  the  importance  of  these  factors,  and  the 
application  of  the  tools  and  techniques  of  operations 
management  to  firms  operating  in  a  high  technology 
environment.  Recommended  for  students  interested 
in  careers  in  manufacturing  in  high  technology  in-

ing the  problems,  policies,  and  practices  of  the  crim- 
inal court  system.  Particular  emphasis  is  placed  on 
the  lower  criminal  court.  Issues  in  court  management, 
including  personnel  problems,  scheduling,  role  of 
juries  and  witnesses,  use  of  planning  and  manage- 
ment techniques,  and  court  reform,  are  reviewed. 

CJ  351 7  Terrorism 

Divided  into  two  sections,  the  first  part  of  which 
examines  the  sociology  of  terrorism,  including  fund- 
ing, intelligence  gathering,  weapons  and  tactics,  in- 
formers, and  countermeasures.  Special  attention  is 
also  given  to  the  media  which  report  the  news,  yet 
seem  often  perilously  close  to  inciting  further  terror. 
The  "terrorist  personality,"  the  literary  depiction  of 
terrorism,  and  the  doctrine  of  systematic  terrorism, 
as  well  as  its  current  interpretations  and  common 
patterns,  motives,  and  aims,  are  also  examined. 

The  second  part  concentrates  on  identifying  tech- 
nologies of  counterterrorism,  discussing  incident 
management  needs,  and  recommending  ways  to 
lessen  the  risk  of  nationally  disruptive  acts.  The 
course  attempts  to  challenge  accepted  assumptions 
and  to  forecast  changes  in  terrorist  activities  that 
may  affect  tomorrow's  headlines. 

CJ  351 8  Issues  in  Juvenile  Justice 

A  critical  analysis  of  the  policies  and  practices  of

version, adjudication,  and  disposition  of  juveniles 
within  the  justice  system.  In  addition,  the  course 
focuses  on  the  historical  development  of  the  juvenile 
justice  system  and  assesses  current  trends  and  pro- 
posals for  reform. 

CJ  3519  Organized  Crime 

The  course  approaches  organized  crime  from  a  law 
enforcement  perspective,  stressing,  however,  the 
general  criminal  justice  implications.  The  corruptive 
influences  of  organized  crime  are  dealt  with,  as  well 
as  aspects  of  overzealous  enforcement  that  may  lead 
to  violations  of  constitutional  safeguards.  The  scope 
of  intelligence  activities  and  the  role  of  computerized 
information  concerning  organized  crime  are  explored 
with  special  attention  given  to  sensitive  privacy  is- 
sues involved.  Problems  of  definition,  organizational 
structure,  operating  methods,  participant  identifica- 
tion, and  legal  limitations  are  discussed.  The  effect 
of  so  called  "victimless  crime"  status  in  enhancing 
the  economic  viability  and  public  tolerance  of  or- 
ganized crime  is  also  considered,  and  present  strat- 
egies suggested  for  the  control  or  elimination  of  this 
pervasive  phenomenon.  Finally,  the  relationship  of 
organized  crime  to  the  continuing  increase  of  both 
"street"  and  "white  collar"  crime  is  assessed.

corrections,  utilizing  historical,  philosophical,  and 
pragmatic  perspectives  and  including  an  analysis  of 
the  alternatives  to  imprisonment  or  institutionaliza- 
tion. For  course  purposes,  community-based  pro- 
grams are  defined  as  programs  aimed  at  reducing 
the  occurrence  of  criminal  and  delinquent  behavior 
through  prevention,  rehabilitation,  reintegration,  and/ 
or  diversionary  services  in  noninstitutional  settings 
which  make  maximum  use  of  existing  and  potential 
community  resources.

Crime  and  its  control  from  the  comparative  perspec- 
tive, viewed  both  historically  and  contemporaneously. 
The  development  of  Roman  legal  institutions,  the 
emergence  of  common  law  and  other  legal  systems 
(the  civil  law  and  the  socialist  legal  system),  and  the 
emergence  of  American  legal  institutions  in  the  nine- 
teenth century  are  all  examined.  The  crime  problems 


in  developing  societies  (India,  nineteenth-century  Eu- 
rope and  America)  are  contrasted  with  those  in  de- 
veloped societies  (modern  Europe  and  America),  and 
the  impact  of  a  world  economic  system  on  the  two 
is  explored.  The  advantages  of  comparative  analysis 
are  developed. 

CJ  3531  White  Collar  Crime

rent theoretical,  research,  and  public  policy  issues 
regarding  white  collar  crime.  The  first  part  examines 
definitions  of  white  collar  crime  as  well  as  various 
typologies  of  white  collar  crime  activity.  The  nature, 
extent  and  consequences  of  white  collar  crime  in  the 
United  States  will  also  be  assessed.  Finally  explan- 
ations for  the  commission  of  these  offenses  will  be 
discussed.  The  second  part  uses  case  studies  to 
explore  in  more  detail  white  collar  crime.  For  example, 
cases  of  employee  theft,  corporate  crime,  governmen- 
tal deviance,  industrial  espionage,  and  computer 
crime  will  be  presented  and  discussed.  The  third 
part  focuses  on  controlling  white  collar  crime.  The 
problems  of  traditional  criminal  justice  systems  in 
controlling  white  collar  crime  will  be  examined  and 
the  prospects  of  alternative  systems  of  control-civic 
law,  private  security,  public  opinion-will  be  assessed.
